Default Carolina 1/2A Crew Fly-In and Reedie Race

OK guys, I’m trying to get a 1/2A meet together which will include the “Reedie” Racing as well as general flying. The spot is a private flying field where we’ve held some Quickie 500 races and practice. It has a 30 x 50 asphalt takeoff pad with 2 1700 ft grass runways. About 98 acres of open area to fly. The field is in Julian NC right off of 421. About 30 minutes from the field Rog has been having his fly-in at. Enough room for 2 flight lines so the flying would not have to stop during the races.

I’ve been flying some of my vintage single channel models there because it is so open so if one of the systems was to quit retrieving the model would be no problem. A great free flight place also!

What I need to decide is a good date. A spring date would be great. Just need to decide so I can nail down the day.

Brian, the field even has 2 ponds possibly float fly???? So what do you think??? I think we should open it up to all 1/2A designs both glow and electric.
