December is definitely here in Virginia. Not much flying going on. How about the Carolina's? With winter upon us I finally have a chance to catch up on a few of my District VP duties. One of which is scheduling of contest. I really need to hear from everyone who is going to CD a contest or even thinks they may have a contest. I need dates and locations. This year especially as I'm working with D-1 to have a D1/D2 shootout. I 've got some interest from District 1 to include a club that is willing to have the contest. Location would be in Maryland. Date looks to be in June. Now my next question is, can I count of District 2 for a good representation in all classes. I want the home of the shootout trophy to be in District 2. I believe we have the talent now all we need is the comittment.
I'm sure by now all NSRCA members have gotten the rules survey. Please make sure to fill it in and return it. Any comments you have send them my way. I'll put them in front of the board. I'm seeing a good conversation dealing with the 11 lb. weight limit for pattern airplanes. If your interested check it out on the RC Universe Pattern Forum page. If we maintain the 2 meter size limit do we need to be concerned about weight?
I do have one other task to do and that is to get the gifts wrapped for my Mrs Santa. Without her support this hobby "Pattern" would not be half as much fun! I hope everyone in District 2 has a great holiday season. Let me know what Mrs. Santa get's you.
