The Prez' Sez' for April 2012

By Frank Gagliardi


As I write this, winter is hanging on by it's fingernails! But have no fear, summer and great flying will soon be here. But wait...............It doesn't matter if it rains, we can STILL fly.....and I don't mean on a 12" screen!...We have a great facility at Miramar College and a REALLY good deal there, thanks to some hard working board members who giveFranknMonocoupe of their time to make it happen!.....Have YOU been there lately?  I try to get there at least once a month. There are some great and innovative models to be seen along with some very creative electronics. The week-end of the 21st and 22nd of April is the Scalemasters Qualifier at Hemet. I'll have my Monocoupe there to compete in the Open Class. I won the L.A. Qualifier in 2010 with my electric KI-61 "Tony".....let's see if lightning can strike twice!

[Seems to have - ed]  "My Monocoupe took top honors in the Open Class at the Scalemasters Qualifier in Hemet this past week-end. The championships will be held in Indiana in Sept...........I think I'll pass on that one!......................ELECTRICS RULE!"

Be sure to check the website for the latest info' regarding events and meetings.

BTW...................How does the field look? We are developing a maintenance plan and with your help it will work. Thanks to all who helped with the "yard work" and the roller helped Jim lose about 5lbs!..........I'm next!
See you at the field.....................
