I was on the AMA web site today getting dates for events around the area so I can pencile them in on my calendar and found this about our fun fly The George McGinnis Fun Fly. I will not be able to attend this event so I hope you all have a great day of flying.

OK here is a little problem that may need looking into .. The event is listed as a class C event not Class C restricted.. I would think it would be class C restriced to fixed wing only.. Now you will have heli guys showing up and club rules or not I believe they may be able to fly.. there is nothing in the add that states no heli's. It is a fun fly .. That pretty much means any type of aircraft and the event it is AMA sanctioned at an AMA field and the add was approved.. If you don't want heli's flying some one please look into changing the add or something..

Thanks Pete for pointing this out. I will contact Mike Shauger to clarify.
His e-mail link needs to be corrected as well.

Yes, Mike is already informed. Communication still seems to be the greatest problem among human beings. Sad Sad

Just pulled this off the AMA website at 2:24 p.m. EST 1/28/10.

What are "high stats"?

Could it possibly be "high starts"?

Are you serious Frank??????????
When your jet can't get off the ground and you put a string on the bottom of its fuse.
You then take the other end of the string and you run as if you train for the Olympics.
If then your jet takes off, then and only then when it takes off that then is a High Start.
By the way the fuse is that thing where the wings are attached to.
Laughing Laughing Idea Idea Idea

Well Frank, now you know what a high start is. I'll bet you jet guys thought it was an engine restart at altitude after a flameout! Laughing Laughing Laughing
