AMA News District IV - 2010/04

Author: Bliss Teague


Edition: Model Aviation - 2010/04
Page Numbers: 138

THE TRIAD Aeromodelers Inc. held its
annual swap meet at the Davidson County
Fairgrounds in Lexington, North Carolina.
As usual, there were plenty of buyers and
bargains galore.
This is one of the prominent money
makers for the club to help support its flying
facilities. You can see from the pictures that
there was plenty to look at for nearly
everyone.
The Winston-Salem R/C Club held its
annual swap meet at the Dixie Classic
Fairgrounds this past November. There were
a lot of lookers and buyers so the venders
and shoppers were both happy.
This year, the swap meet was blessed
with venders bearing a multitude of articles.
For those interested in old magazines, there
were plenty for people wishing to complete
their collections. I even found some for
mine. As you know, we have lost some
publications, so these magazines have
become even more valuable.
Those interested in Scale sometimes find
it hard to locate documentation for their
aircraft. These old magazines are one
source.
These get-togethers are times to renew
friendships, stock up for the upcoming
flying season, or find something new and
different. You know that spring is not too far
away and you can get back to flying. That’s
what it’s all about anyway.
See you at some of the upcoming events!
There is a new Pylon Racing club in North
Carolina. Those interested in Pylon, check
out the Old Julian Airport Model Airplane
Club near Greensboro.
Racing seems to be picking up lately in
District IV. There are a number of clubs
holding Racing and Speed rallies. The sports
are enjoyed by a fairly large number of
people.
As a final thought, I want to thank those
who supported me in the past election.
Also, check out the AMA Web site to see
the new museum addition made possible by
Claude McCullough’s generous donation.
You’ll be glad you did.
See you soon.
