I don't have a really good shot of our field as it's not even a year old, but these two pics should give you an idea.

Bill,

We have been at this location almost 5 years now. It is about 4 miles north east of the old field and is located at 29th and Lynn Lane. Club member Tim Davie is our current jumbo/3D expert with a 40% Edge and soon to fly 42% Extra. I have a few pictures and videos of his planes on my web site under "More Pics and Videos".
