Its great to see a club that works so hard for the love of flying and fellowship with friends.
Our club could use some pointers from you guys.

Get one or two of your flying buddies, load up your transport and come on over here and join in on the fun.......the Ohio Dawn Patrol is a great venue, presented to the modeling public with the modeler in mind.......they are great hosts, the ODP group and the Cincinnati Aeromodelers!
It only takes a couple of guys with a bit of enthusiasm to make an impact!
Cheers,

this is how it all started for the Hoosier Dawn Patrol group, which infected (er, I mean affected) the Ohio Dawn Patrol and so on and on it goes.....

RE: OHIO DAWN PATROL 2013!
This is "Mission Oriented Flying" at its best!
Both are 1/3 scale models. The DR1 was designed and built by Herman Cholewinski. The Pup is a Balsa USA kit, built by Greg Hahn and flown by me, King Arthur.
This has got to be one of my favorite pictures EVER (because I have the cat bird's seat in this exchange).
You'll have to go to the RC Dawn Patrol site and look at a "Tale of Two Planes" for the picture.......(I can't seem to find it on my computer)

Jim,
That pic is what I was talking about........the little ''baby'' planes are allowed BUT I would wait until there is no ''Man-sized'' planes in the air........
That was my ''CD's''(Lee McDuffy).........''Alby flee'' that got ''run over'' in some ''man-size'' traffic.......
I'm sure all us Fokkers will yield to you and go thru you......I MEAN AROUND YOU! LOL!!!

LOL, You can't fool me Paul. That's what you told this poor fellow, downed by Billy at midnight!
BECAUSE you have one of the best WWI pilots EVER!...in your cockpit.....You will have full exemption and you can fly anytime!.....

I have to ask, has your executive contest committee selected the winner of this year's traveling trophy? The suspense is building.... drum roll....

RE: OHIO DAWN PATROL 2013!
I keep thinking of more questions... Will there be any electrical outlets to use for charging? Or does a person need to bring their own generator, or car batteries to recharge off of?

Paul,
Do you have any kind of balancing rig there that I can use for the DH-2? If not I can bring one but it has to be hung from a beam in the building. I will bring lead shot and epoxy too. I think I will need it!

Jim, If a rig is a problem you can always use THIS method as an alternative. It's written in German but Google translate should do the job. It's also a very good method. Weight your model and put all the measurements in the exel form and the answer is given to you.
Have a good Dawn Patrol guys

Paul!!!
We are so sorry we can't make this years ODP.
Family health problems for both Keith Z, and Greg,
are in the mix.
Keith has TWO 1/2 scale projects ready, but will
have to wait until next year, or maybe Rhinebeck.
Will miss seeing our friends at ODP, but our
thoughts will be in Ohio.
Augie
P.S. Good job on the gate

RE: OHIO DAWN PATROL 2013!
Well, it looks like my buddy and I ARE going to be there ! Unfortunately no large airplanes, we are just going to drive over Friday, hopefully hang out that evening , and Saturday. We are gonna stick a couple small WW1 birds (Great Planes 40 inch electrics) in the Corolla, and try to sneak in some flights between the big MULCHING planes ! I don't want strained through any of Billy's wings like that little Fokker. hahahah
There is just no way I am going to miss seeing a half scale in action !
I am just tired of seeing so many great pictures, and hearing the funny stories ONLINE ! I have to meet some of you guys after posting on the same threads with you all these years...
So keep an eye out for the ...OHIO DAWN PATROL or BUST... banners ! hahahahah
