There are a few better places to fly than the basin. There are great fields in Slymar and Duarte. Also a decent field in Glendale where you have to deal with a dirt runnway and fly left and land right. All of these choices are far better than the basin.

I spent most of the day at The Basin today. Had a good time. Hung out with a bunch of my flyin' buddies, got in a few flights (under frequency control),saw some funny stuff, etc. Generally had a good time.......

Dave,
You left before four jets were flying at the same time, that's always fun to watch. It was a well run event and I finally got to go out by myself and fly the new Spad. Maybe I just scared everyone else into staying down till I was done.
Hey Bill, I saw Barry fly a funfly plane that also goes to the right! Just in case someone said he could't do it.
Jsesere, If by Duarte your referring to Whittier Narrows then yes that is an excellent field and I fly there often. I have seen all the "problems" you spoke of at the Basin exhibited at Whittier. The other two fields are private and I enjoy the action of the public fields, just my preference.

RE: Sepulveda Basin
What a Good Day of flying on Sat.
Did landing's all day with My Ultra Stick.
The Jet Boy's were out also in force with 4 planes.
All of them flying their standard Flight Plan.
That would be;
Take Off, Go Vertigical into huge loop over run way;
Looping back down to Fly back down run way at full speed.
Flying left to right, high speed pass down run way backing
right just slightly to show the top,one time, two time, three time
landing out of fuel.
The Overpowered Combat Squadron Boy's were out too.
While flying Their follow me Boy,s pattern, one flew too low into
the run way, had to ditch it into the tall brush about three
hundred yards out, almost like in the movies.
Yes it was a good dat.

Hi all, I just moved to the long beach ca area and I'm looking for a club to hook up with. I fly .60 to .90 size aircraft and I'm not afraid to bounce them in on landing. Thanks

I truly hate those jet guys. You have to come down When they go up, and they don't olet you know. You hear a rumble, and they have already done 3 passes by the time you can go to land. They steal the show. I thought the flying lawnmowers attracted more attention though.

I hope to have an electric to fly sometime this week. Remember that the SFV Giant Scale Squadron is hosting the July giant scale fun fly this weekend. Transmitter lock out and hot dogs. Bring your giant scale plane and have some fun. This is an AMA sanctioned event.

If the guys with the trays sell them they ought to have some splash guards for my shoes for all the BS spewed. One of them told everyone at the field about how he was going to fly his full scale Sukhoi in the airshow until Jason busted him big time.

He went on and on and when Jason started asking him if he belonged to certain associations for flying at air shows he had no clue what Jason was talking about. Also there are only about 9 Sukhoi's in the U.S. (according to J.S.) and he knows who owns most of them.
I tend to think J.S. knows what he's talking about.

RE: Sepulveda Basin
Question on the SFV Giant Scale Squadron this weekend.
Are they firing up the BBQ grill for hot dogs or sending in a catering truck ??
I'm too rusty to fly but I plan to stop by with the wife unit and see the event and if they are BBQing the hot dogs I will definitely have one or two or ........, They are good so is the event.
I need to get some flying in and participate in the next one in October.
