RE: Sepulveda Basin

Hey Gang,
I thought that I would take a moment and say thanks to all who participated in last weeks warbird event. I had a really fun time, win or no win. It was a great bunch of people who just...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Yup, Woody was the man who originally designed the Cruise Air I believe back in the 40s as a free flight. Since then it has taken on some new shapes and modifications to accommodate radio control. I...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Eddy have you met the blind guy? I dug this up from more than 5 years back. Can you imagine this once in a life time experience for this blind fellow.

Hello Fellow Pilot's

It is that special time of year again where newbie's bring out that brand new gift to try out for the very first time. These are the folks that know absolutely nothing...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Richard,

Thanks for your great community service with these combat planes. I personally had a blast being chased around the sky while trying to stay alive. You did an awesome job in getting that...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

With so many planes there on the weekend, another 6 or 8 in the sky won't make a difference. I think a couple of sessions on the weekend would be entertainment for most, and I think you will get the...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Sounds pretty nice for a combat plane. Are they built like the others?

RE: Sepulveda Basin

The Showflyer is down for now. I never got the motor dialed in, and the other YS experts didn't figure it out either. This left me with some sloppy power during my first flights. One moment the power...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Thanks for the heads up on the complaint. I have heard about this same complaint in the last 4 weeks now and it seems to be someone in the morning with a giant scale. It could be anyone, anytime...

What happens if you need lessons on G2 as well? Why is their PT-40 trainer so hard to fly?

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Hey Richard,

You know it is bad enough when someone looses an airplane at the field, but it is even worse when someone you fly with rubs your nose in it. I realize that leaving your wreck in the...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

Hey Dave,

The basin sits at 153/333 degrees magnetic. I checked this from the air during a departure out of VNY. While the runway at Van Nuys is 161/341 degrees. If you want an exact number get...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

I think the sign thing might be a good idea here. I know that there are many signs at the basin but believe it or not some of them do actually work. We need some kind of an idea for a newbie sign....

RE: Sepulveda Basin

I am all about not attracting attention. I would hope that most of the jet guys already think about this kind of thing. Especially given the current circumstances of so many So. Cal fires going on. I...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

I also forgot about your age. I think that it is easier for you to be picked on only because of your age. The jet folks are mainly of an older generation with the exception of a few. Most of those...

Hello Spaceclam,

I would like to think that I have personally given my fair share of attention to those who want to talk to me about model aircraft flying, or anything else for that matter. It...

Hello Hozer,

Although wasn't there that day to see your difficulty with the war-birds. I do know that it can be hectic sometimes trying to take off and land while they are aloft. Personally I...

Hey,

I understand that ticketmaster is selling box seats for weekend brawls at the basin. Has anyone heard about this?
It sounds like I can give up WWF on cable for a day of watching war-bird...

RE: Sepulveda Basin

From a bad day with warbirds to a great day with jet formation at its best. It is days like this that make 3D flying seem like a waste of time.

Thanks for another great day at the basin...
