Wanna see some combat???
Kelly,
Directions to our field: From I-5 heading South: Take the Slater road exit and head west from the stop sign (turn right) (not sure of the exit #, but it is the Lummi Indian reservation and casino exit.) continue to the stop light (about 3 miles?) turn left on Haxton Way. (Texaco and the Casino will be on your left). take the first right that you come to (N. Red River road) and it will wind along the river (slough?) for about a mile. take the first left over the little bridge and again the first left immediately after the bridge. you will be backtracking now, but our field is only a couple of tenths of a mile on the right. As far as being turbine friendly, we have a 200' x 20' paved runway and a 500' x 80' grass strip. we had a pretty hot turbine out for our big bird earlier this year and have one member in the process of finishing a Top Cat. He is thinking that it will be ready for taxi testing this weekend. He is going to fly it the first couple of times at the Whidbey Island field (3000' Navy runway!) but he thinks it should be no problem to fly at our field once he has a good feel for the turbine. Would love to have ya down for som carnage!!!! We have a few Canadian members that say it is only about an hour to our field (depending on border traffic) and the facilities are so nice that they prefer to fly down here. I think we would probably have to prearrange a weekend combat meet as we have to let the other 100 members know that the field will be filled up w/ Gremlins and Spads, but get some guys together and lets plan it!!! otherwise come on down on Thursday nites and lets mix it up!!!!
