Post by: Busby on May 26, 2006, 10:58:50 AM: What? No comment to Charlies statement that the AMA told the local Parks Board to forget about CL.
It really happened.
And in a room full of witnesses.

In addition to only flying during the week ,you can only fly from 9:30 to 2:30 and have to appear in person at the Parks Board during working hours to obtain a permit with photo at the cost of $20.00.

They really want to make the Park available to the public.

Also they will not allow any type of combat plane or race type to fly ,the Rangers will appear and escort you off of the property.

This is occurring on property that was donated to the city for the specific use of model flying.
Title: Re: Where R U from???
Post by: Jim Pollock on May 26, 2006, 03:57:13 PM: Marshall,

If it was donated with the specific intent for model flying and the city/county isn't letting that happen, then the donor should take it back and make it a private model flying park!

Post by: Michael O on April 13, 2007, 01:39:20 AM: Hi!
I am new to this forum and am a retread that grew up flying 1/2A control line aircraft. Later on I moved on to R/C, but as I have always been fascinated by C/L I have decided to make a new beginning in C/L stunt.

On the building board right now is a SIG Banshee that I found in my cellar.
I thought I had given all C/L stuff away, but I was wrong :)

Presently I live in Uppsala, Sweden (aerial photo) (http://kartor.eniro.se/query?&what=map&mop=yp&imgmode=1&mapstate=6%3B17.638121728238925%3B59.8581536136609%3B0%3B17.617093320171065%3B59.86784333535817%3B17.659150136306792%3B59.848521037392004).

I have had the extreem good fortune to have lived many places where no modelers lived and moved out of them just as a bunch of modelers showed up. Of course I always moved to a place where no modelers existed. My most recent move was to Atlanta Ga where darn few modelers are active in spite of Randys presence and the Marietta club. In Atlanta it is 60 0r 70 miles to anywhere. There could be 100 modelers here and none closer than 40 miles from you. It is just as close for me to drive to Anniston Alabama and fly with Tom Morris. He has at least a dozen good sites to fly on the Army base and has no one to fly with unless they come from out of town. n~ HB~>

Hey Ed...
Flying Buddies shouldn't be that much of a problem in Snellville GA. That's the home of Aero Products, Randy Smith, and his wonderful PA Engines etc. Contact him at AeroProducts he should be able to give you some names and He's a great stunt filer and one of the best sources of info for engines and stunt planes around!

UUHHHHHHH....Ed,
Sorry about that...Aeroproducts is actually in Dacula GA. Not sure how close that is to Snellville. I seem to remember Randy Smith was in Snellville and then moved several years ago...MAYBE! He probably can still give you some contacts.

Randy, that's too bad. I don't have anywhere I can fly consistently, either. But that's not because I don't consistently have somewhere to fly.

There were, of course, numerous addresses at these "approximate" locations.

I started flying control line in about 1951 or so. Quit in about 1953 or so, and finally started back in Sept. 2008.

Post by: DanielGelinas on August 27, 2011, 07:16:30 AM: I'm in Cowansville, Quebec, Canada! Just 20 minutes north from the Vermont border.
I'm certainly interested in meeting up with Vermont flyers also! I feel like I'm the only one who flies in Quebec. :(
