Possible new Camp-N-Fly event at Los Banos

[Doc James Hammond]

Gogogogogogo!

We are really happy to get involved how ever we can - obviously donating models might help.

I'm sure the other glider manufacturers and sellers would be happy to contribute as well.

Alex and I met up with Sean and Bruce for a 'quick' fly at Los Banos on Sunday. Air Temps 95 degree F, winds were 25+ mph from the NW switching to W after lunch. Probably one of the last days this summer of sub 100 temps. Here are a few videos and pictures for those who never been to this slope. Bruce and Sean flew their scale gliders after lunch. Fun!.

I have a few phone numbers for folks that used to host events at this site. Will be giving them a call this week and see if they have some wisdom for us.

Fantastic - all digits crossed!

This could develop into THE slope sailplane event (and others) of the century.

Has there been any news on this being able to happen?

 

[Wayne]

Sorry, nothing to report yet.

 

[Lee B]

Thanks. I'm just excited about another event. I wanted to put it on the calendar before something else is put down on the same weekend

Hoping this one works out.

While I doubt I can really help make it happen. I just thought I'd bump this to the top.

 

[Wayne]

Sorry, I let this one fall through the cracks.. Just too much on my plate. Sorry!
