Status: offline 		I am going to start flying pattern this year. I am going to be using a just recently finished Great Planes 300s. I am also going to start flying IMAC this year as well with my Lanier Edge 540. I enjoy both types of flying but I have to say for me there is nothing that trips my trigger like watching a 2m pattern ship going through its manuvers.

Status: offline 		I'm a prospective pattern flyer and would like to build a ship sometime during the year. I could use any ol' thing for Sportsman, but I'd like to find plans for a .60-size (I have a .61 needing a home) with modern lines (just because) . I already know of some older planes' plans from AMA. Who sells some good plans? (not kits).

checksix --- I liked your Boxer 120 presentation. Do you have an address for Salient Designs. I assume they have a Boxer 60, a fella did well in the Nats with one.

Thanks!

Send an email to Gus Ozols at [email]SalientRC@aol.com[/email]
He doesn't have a web page, but he'll send you a pdf file describing all his planes.

Status: offline 		Anyone interested in pattern the way it used to be flown, that is pre-1976 and turnaround might want to check out the Senior Pattern Association. All aircraft are 1975 or earlier, patterns are from the AMA rulebook of that era, and it's mostly about friends and fun.

There will be at least 1/2 doz. contests this season in SPA and especially if you're in the southern states, come try and fly. You'll enjoy it.

Here's the SPA link:
