Default RE: landing the switchback

I live about 2 blocks from Heavenly Main Lodge and did most of my flying there this summer and fall. Since the snow has come and the resort has to much activity now I have been flying at the local municipal golf coarse. It is about 5 minutes from my house and a great flying site. I have skis on my planes with gear and my Alfa P51 is a belly lander. It is alot of fun flying off the snow. If you should come up I have an extra set of skis you can try on your Switchback. Drop me an email if your in the area. I now that the San Rafael park down there is a good place to fly but haven't tried it yet. I usually always carry my Switchback with me on my service calls and have flown at the dedicated RC feild in Gardnerville and Carson on occasion as well. I do have several flying sites in this area and use them all at times. The great thing about electrics is you can fly them in so many locations not like the gas flyers. When I have flown at there feilds they are always amazed at my electric planes and quit envious of there versatility.
HAPPY FLYING!!!
