Hey guys, Whats the deal with the tow hook assembly coming up into the ballast tube area, I don't get it ? They have a slot in the bottom of the tube so the hook assembly comes into the tube. How do you use the tube ? Dave Hauch www.git-r-built.com RCSE-List facilities provided by Model

[RCSE] Contest Eligibility Rule

2005-06-01 Thread lomcovak
The one and only local soaring club has ruled that any pilot who lives within 100Km who wishes to compete in their local advertised contest, must first join their club. Has anyone else heard of this before? Although this has little merit, the membership fee last year was $40, now it is $100

Isn't the whole issue here, pilots paying for the ability to fly at the field? You fly, you pay. Simple. So users can pay per day, per event, per year, whatever... it would seem a reasonable concept. Is this club only giving the option to pay per year? And, pilots from 100+ km's fly free? Am I

Correct. Just make a tiered entrance fee. Member fee and then add a Park Maintenance fee. Just about every Business, Organization, and Municipality does something like that. Steve At 03:33 PM 6/1/2005, Bill Swingle wrote: Isn't the whole issue here, pilots paying for the ability to fly

Possibly someone should suggest a daily use fee in addition to a yearly membership. Again, someone has to volunteer and take their flying time to be the administrator of all these fees. That's a good way to run off the good people that are dedicated, and don't mind paying a reasonable price of
