Well I am new to this site, and just wanted to say hello everyone.
Well this past sunday I went to the field not to far from me here in Houston, and
I want to say I met a few people there and they where very friendly and welcome me there.
I hope to get them better since I am a newbie at this, I am hoping to have someone there teach me to fly on the buddy system.
Like I said Thanks guys for being nice and friendly.
Glen
Well, I'm not certain being a member on RCU for 14 months makes you new here, but welcome aboard !!
The plot can always use new characters !!!
I take it that the bayou city club is close to home ? If not, the Jetero RC club on the north east side, east of lake houston is a very nice facility with several instructors, 50 acres out in sod farm country, and a very nice building with a frig full of cold drinks.
Actually there are nearly 20 clubs in and around houston. So, there should be one very near your home, where ever you live.
And don't miss the giant blow out at Bomber Field ! Its the biggest event around houston. Its Sept. 19-21 in Monaveille, west of houston. It used to be the same weekend as Reno, but I guess enough folks complained about the conflict. reno is the weekend before, now.
And there is a fairly decent aviation museum in galveston beside the airport. Quite a few of the Confederate Air Force, ( or what ever they call themselves these days ), airpanes are based there.
Pretty soon, when the weather cools off a little, the local clubs will be having big bird fly in and airshows. There should be something going on almost every weekend. So check the schedule in the back of the Model Aviation magazine.
Have fun and expect to meet almost everyone in houston.
