As a young boy in 70's, I would watch my late Uncle practice fly pattern for contest fly...later after a half a dozen pattern planes built they stopped around 85. I have flown many different SPA (Senior Pattern Association) planes over the years and still have the desire to compete. I am working with SPA guys now on having a West Coast SPA event in Wheatland CA, at the Red Barons' RC Flying Club- http://www.redbarons.org/- on or about October 27th. I will let you know if it drums up interest. I do know it has sparked a small interest back to glow. So we will see.
