Hi Skip, I will likely be attending. I was speaking with one of the other local jet guys the other day at the Carson field (Hal) and he is planning to attend as well. He mentioned he would be looking into camping on site.

Questions about density altitude - Just to back Skip up, it can get high in the mid summer like August - but this time of year will probably be pretty reasonably low. Field is at 5000 feet MSL. I've flown my 80N powered A-4 with a full bag of fuel at this site on 100 degree days in the past and it was manageable on the 600' runway. The approach paths are easy, clear and not turbulent. I've even landed heavy with half fuel and no worries, the runway is nice. On a 60 or 70 degree day in April it will be a piece of cake. What I like about the RRCC field is there are zero obstacles or anything at all besides sage brush to fly over, out there in the pattern. You have the sky and the ground to yourself. There are a few mountains in the background but they are so far out you'll never get even half way to them before you lose sight of the model.

At normal temps before summer gets cooking... sea level setups on turbines are fine. I've only had to adjust my spool up and spool down time slightly (slow them slightly) when it gets in the low 90's and upward for temp. Otherwise, there should be no worries for jets that can handle a 500 foot long, sea level runway in the summer. This 600 foot long, 70 foot wide runway will give you the little bit of extra takeoff and landing distance if you happen to need it. The over runs and shoulders are leveled decomposed granite for a sort of safety transition before the open fields.
