How to find Flying Buddies near you.
Gentlemen, this is an experiment. Have you ever wanted Electric Flying Buddies in your area, someone who flys leccy, swap ideas, flights and areas to fly in safely that aren't Clubs (before we start this is NOT an anti-Club thread at all!!). Then we shall start......
First off, post here with where you live and where you are prepared to travel to meet up for flights. Keep it precise and use the PM facility to keep it private if needed. State what planes you have, your level of skill and what you actually are looking for, be it new safe sites or just a change of scenery.
Leave a line or 2 of space before you type the areas name and then type it using a capital letter for the area name etc eg Glasgow Flying Buddies wanted (just as this example), then add your usual signature or even use that as the signature - post it. If you want to find someone in your area go to the Electric Park Flyers page and type in the search facility at the top Glasgow Flying Buddies wanted - and up will pop this page (I hope), then you can converse openly with the person who has posted or do it by PM. So I will start....

Huntsville Alabama Flying Buddies Wanted
We fly electrics weekdays at lunch (11-12) at the Redstone Arsenal Parade grounds.
We fly indoor R/C planes and helis and free-flight planes at NASA Building 4316 http://ns1.aris.net/mailman/listinfo/mmm for info.
We fly indoor planes and helis Mondays 6-8 PM in a Parish Gym in downtown Huntsville.
There are numerous other flying sites around Huntsville and Madison, so I have no need to travel out of town!

Is that really YOU in that Avatar or a long-lost relative???
Thats something I would love to try (indoor flying), but no-one seems interested in this City, even though the rain comes in sideways 5 days a week and its like living in a wind tunnel!!!!
I can dream......

RE: How to find Flying Buddies near you.
Well, I still don't know if there are any pilots in Minnesota at all besides me and Micro Builder, but I'm looking for anyone who flies in parks within reasonable biking distance ( 2 years and some change till I can drive...) of Lake Nokomis (if you don't know where that is I can help....)
