Default FARM pattern contest May 23-24

I've confirmed a Tiger Tail will be present this weekend at the Bealeton, VA pattern contest.

The main attraction is on Saturday evening. My wife has already started cooking a special meal for anyone who is interested in participating. She is making three types of bar-b-que (pork, chicken and Texas style beef brisket). The FARM club agreed to make this an F3A team fundraising meal at the pattern contest at the FARM club Saturday afternoon/evening when flying is complete. Basically, we will have some pattern flyers from the 1970's telling stories about model aircraft technology at that time and some interesting tales of RC pilots. I'm told that there will be quite a few stories to tell of "back in the day". Team F3A shirts, hats, raffle ticket (forms/connection) and lots of good time!


In addition to classic pattern as part of the event, we will also have a special demonstration of jet aerobatics, called "F3S", courtesy of Archie.


Be sure to bring some "Classic" pictures.




The weekend will be a mix of the old and the new.
