Back when I first flew there (control line and free flight) mid 70's I think the corn was still there,, when I start fly power RC in the 80/90's it was Sod.. It was great on a dead stick,, unless you hit a sprinkler [:@]

No seriously,,,,,, Club has 6k in the bank, another 2k in paypal account, and the clubs foundation (tax shelter) has 17k in the bank. That's $25,000.oo People........... What is the hold up on the runway repairs which are under 10k. Seriously................

Our Runway is S#!T compaired to various other fields which i have flown at.

I have an idea!

Since the mayor uses the LADWP to fund every other damn pet project of his in LA, let's get him to add another DWP surcharge to our electric bill to pay for the improvements at the field!

Check out a "sneak peak" of the first episode of season 3 on Auction Hunters. I think it airs on the 19th.

http://www.spike.com/shows

Click Auction hunters then sneak peak.

Shot at the basin a couple months ago.

I think there might be some Habu destruction on Tuesday's version. That was fun



Thanks,
Billy

Really neat Billy. Who was the guy running for cover off the runway at takeoff?

That was one of the cameramen from the production crew. He knew what he was getting into. And I knew he was there
It was all about "getting the shot"

Woo Hoo! I leave Aug. 6th to go to Texas and work on an F4U Corsair restoration! Just think, a week in 105 deg, 60% humidity in a hanger. Doesn't get any better than that!

Something seems fishy to me

First of all what exactly was he trying to film in the first place, the side of the building?

Then as soon as he sets it down the bird is there ready to pick it up. When was the last time a seagull let you get within 20' before it bolts off

Then, let say all that REALLY happened, how in the heck did he find the camera after the bird took off over the trees, across the road and up on some wall.

I' m gonna say the bird was trained.

I lost a plane out in the sticks this morning. In a North East direction from the runway, in line sort of with a single tall and bushy tree, more than half way to Woodley it seemed like. I was unable to see it from the runway or even Woodley when I drove out there.

It is a Fun World 400 EP.

Being partially disabled I have enormous difficulty walking out in the rutted out bush so I had to leave it.

If anyone happens to be able to go out in the brush and look for planes and finds it, my grand daughter and I would be very thankful.

I will stop by the field on the way home from work to look for it. Hopefully I can find it.

Thanks Billy!

There are some tire tracks going into the brush from the airfield access road. I ventured onto it with my Dodge Ram, but it is only 1WD. I got maybe 100 yards, and it was getting really rough and soft. I had to turn around, I knew I was about to get stuck. A lifted 4WD would be awesome in a situation like this.
