Title: CL Flying in Northwest Florida
Post by: petermick on October 05, 2010, 02:19:48 PM

I will be in Destin, Florida from January to March 2011 and am interested in meeting any flyers in the Pensicola to Panama City area or southern Alabama. Please contact me at pmick82541@aol.com

Thanks

I know of a guy in Seagrove that flys. But other then that I think it is slim pickings. Not even sure there is a hobby shop down there. It is all Tennis and Golf.

Call the Big Fish Bike shop and ask for Kreth.

There are three of us that fly U/C in the Panama City area.  Right now I'm mostly screwed up with a pulled anterior tendon, and because of floods the last two years have been unable to get up to SIG in Iowa so I'm about out of all castor fuel for my older engines.  We had been flying at Frank Brown Park in Panama City Beach, but I've lately heard they have banned all gas airplanes.  Bill Garcia and I have been flying at Kinsal Park in Lynn Haven where he lives, but for the time being he is busy playing with his midget race car.  I've heard there are some flyers in Pensacola too, but I know nothin else.  Drop me an E-mail in several months and maybe I'll be healed up enough to at least fly some of my newer stuff.

The PAMPA directory shows a flier/member in Shalimar, and Ft. Walton Beach Florida. (my old stomping grounds)15 min. drive from Destin. Check under the "Cs" and the "Hs"

I just got an email from Kreth. He is in Germany on vacation.

Just in case you tried to reach him.

We will be back in Florida Thursday evening late.  Will take a couple of days for time zone adjustment, then I'll try to contact some of you that are in the area.
