Default RE: Wars over engine starting benches.



We have about 5-6 benches, and our Field Marshall is always reminding us that they are for starting planes, and you do not get to camp out on a bench for the day.</p>

Most of the time it's not an issue, because there are less than 6 guys flying. When it's really busy, or during a fun fly, I will typically park my flight box at a bench, along with a couple of other guy's boxes, and leave my planes on the ground at the edge of the tall grass. I am happy to let others borrow my starter if they need it while using the bench where my stuff is parked.</p>
