....don't forget to list your Events....no matter how small, or localized they
may be in the...."Events, Shows and Fun Fly's - Airplanes" Forum.... ....

....also, you should list them in the calender section on the RCU homepage.

Status: offline 		Dave, I have posted our "18th Annual London Bridge Seaplane Classic" on the event calender, is there another location where I should post this information also? Information about this Southwest Premier Float Fly Event can be found on two web sites, www.savagewings.com and www.havasufloatfly.com This is an AMA sanctioned event.

Status: online 		Aparently there has been some confussion with a second unofficial website. I just got off the phone with the beachmaster and the float fly is good to go this weekend, no changes. Two contact numbers: Gary Bennett 928-453-1501, George Field 928-855-1197. The official net site is: http://www.deserthawksrc.com/ along with all the info as well as pictures of last years event and site pictures of the new site for this year. This site is fully accessable.

John

No wind, no rain, no weather to worry about. Had a ball. Follow thread for details: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=312612 . Ed LMRA Aeromodelers

Gentlemen just posted this to the events section of this Forum: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_2641839/anchors_2641839/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#2641839 . We have been having a ball on simple foam floats indoors. If you are lucky enough to be coming our way (North of Ft Worth Texas) on the 21st of May please do. Bring a bird and lets fly. I will be posting the rules of engagement within the week and plan on having a good time if I can stay out of the drink. Hardware loss has been minimal once things are dried out but its well worth the risk. Come on out and have a good time. ed
