That is the kind of glider event we here in Alaska Doug.<BR> <BR>> From: mike.rc.3d@gmail.com<BR>> To: alaskarc@lists.alaskarc.org<BR>> Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 05:00:19 +0100<BR>> Subject: Re: [AlaskaRC] May 30th Glider contest moved to Groeschel<BR>> <BR>> Tom,<BR>> <BR>> You missed the glider event I was just at this weekend. They had 100cc sized<BR>> tugs, and even a 1/2 scale glider! One of the crazy dudes went up to 3000 ft<BR>> (used an radio relayed altimeter) and flew around for a while. If I can get<BR>> some of the video footage off my camera I'll see if I can send it.<BR>> <BR>> Jr.<BR>> <BR>> -----Original Message-----<BR>> From: alaskarc-bounces@lists.alaskarc.org<BR>> [mailto:alaskarc-bounces@lists.alaskarc.org] On Behalf Of Tom Simes<BR>> Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 9:28 PM<BR>> To: ARCS List<BR>> Subject: [AlaskaRC] May 30th Glider contest moved to Groeschel<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Hello everybody,<BR>> <BR>> After the outstanding volunteer turnout at the Groeschel field on<BR>> Saturday, we've decided to move the May 30th Glider & Electric contest.<BR>> The Groeschel field is larger, flatter and normally calmer than Moffitt<BR>> - plus the contest fees will go into the club coffers rather than a<BR>> rental fee. I've updated the club calendar, and have already spoken<BR>> with the CD (Doug Franklin) and at least half of the competitive glider<BR>> pilots and they are all enthusiastic about giving it a try.<BR>> <BR>> Cross your fingers, if it's sunny and the normally calm conditions<BR>> prevail there should be some outstanding thermal action. Bob might even<BR>> be able to thermal the Brickaneer!<BR>> <BR>> If you'd rather not drive, let's coordinate car pooling on this list. <BR>> If you can operate a stop watch and enjoy spending the day soaking up<BR>> vitamin D with friends, we've got a deal for you :)<BR>> <BR>> -- <BR>> Tom<BR>> <BR>> _____________________________________________________________________<BR>> <BR>> | , | Tom Simes - President<BR>> ---------(@)--------- Alaska Radio Control Society<BR>> --|-- AMA Chartered Club #1998<BR>> ' president@alaskarc.org<BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> AlaskaRC mailing list<BR>> AlaskaRC@lists.alaskarc.org<BR>> http://lists.alaskarc.org/mailman/listinfo/alaskarc<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> AlaskaRC mailing list<BR>> AlaskaRC@lists.alaskarc.org<BR>> http://lists.alaskarc.org/mailman/listinfo/alaskarc<BR><br /><hr />HotmailŪ goes with you. <a href='http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/Mobile?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutorial_Mobile1_052009' target='_new'>Get it on your BlackBerry or iPhone.</a></body>
