[RCSE] Wanted scale pilot
I've noticed that Hobby People have some killer Action Figures in all kinds of garb. These are more like collectables and the realism is outstanding. They look to be about the right size for 1/4 scale.

[RCSE] AMA Show.
Just returned from an enjoyable show. Of particular interest was a flight demo and then close inspection and QA session of a million dollar micro ornithopter. Thanks to Matt Keenon of Aerovironment for flying and telling us all about it. The thing was the about the size of a sparrow. The control surface actuators were thin strands of muscle wire about as thin as thread. The things contracted when given current. A pager vibrator motor flapped the wings. Flight times are around 25 minutes Very cool! The bird that was flown actually had about $450 worth of materials. Darpa funded project and $1,000,000 was spent developing the thing. Plenty other stuff to drool over as well. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Favorite Plane
Gotta' be the Aquila for me had three of them as an adolescent. It's been almost 30 years since but I'll never forget my trip dwon the cliff at Torrey Pines to retrieve my downed Aquila from Black's Beach. I was a naive teenage country bumpkin... halfway down the cliff I swore all the folks on the beach had the same color bathing suits until I reached beach level. Needless to say it took much longer than it should have to retrieve the model ;- ) RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Security issues and R/C models-keep politics off the exchange
A letter writing campaign is only part of what the Rocket community did to battle the BAFTE regulating our rocket motors. The Rocket community has organizations like the AMA. Those folks coordinated the letter writing campaign so all members would send the letters in at about the same time. They also provided boiler plate text to be used in the letters but encouraged everyone to customize the letters appropriately. They also lobbied congress and found a sympathetic Senator to champion our cause and submit a bill to counter the BAFTE. They also have a lawsuit in progress against the BAFTE. They also found a judge to make a ruling against the BAFTE. He found that the BAFTE did not follow proper procedure in handing down some regulations and was able to halt the regulations until they were properly done.

Couldn't the craft fire it's motor a bit longer and at full power to increase the decent angle to one that might permit the feather recovery? In any case... given Burt's creativity I'm sure he'll think of something and $50,000,000 ought to get the ball rolling. One thing I'm sure of. I am glad to be witness to this accomplishment.

Also be sure to stop by my family's bakery in Mammoth or Bishop! Get some Sheepherder's bread and Cheesebread. The Owens Valley is a Mecca for soaring, full size, para-sailers and hang gliders. The hang gliding WC's have been held there many times. Hang gliding with O2 and jackets in the middle of summer covering courses in the hundreds of miles. Damn good model flying also!

[RCSE] AMA invoved in Homeland security act revisions.
This is from Rocketry Online Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) Joins Cause March 3, 2003 Web posted at: 2:23 PM EST (ROL Newswire) -- The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) has contacted Mark Bundick (NAR President) and Dick Embry (TRA President) with concerns over the impact of the Homeland Security Act (HSA). Recognizing we have common concerns, the AMA agreed with Dick Embry this morning to support the cause. AMA will instruct its 175,000 members to join our efforts to contact Senators to support Senator Enzi's effort to draft legislation to protect our hobby. The Tripoli Rocketry Association will also support any campaign to protect powered model aircraft from the negative effects of the HSA. Please visit the website http://www.space-rockets.com/congress.html and do what you can. Our recent efforts at lobbying for Torrey Pines shows that we can make a difference. Even if you are not involved with Rockets your help may benefit children who would not otherwise be exposed to this interesting science. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
