DOWNERS GROVE, ILLINOIS: Club
#279, the Woodland Aero Modelers, held an
open house and information opportunity.
(L-R) Vice President Robert Boen, President
William Brzostowski, and Jim Kummerow
provided their knowledge and display of
their models.
Professor Ed Niccum guided youngsters on
the flight simulator.
The static display also included music by
Dennis Miendersma.
Here Dennis is showing one of the many
visitors how to use the buddy box. This is a
great way to show the flying instruction
method to possible new members.
Ed Niccum instructs youngsters on the
transmitter’s operation and the reaction of
the control surfaces.
The information and pictures were sent
in by Fred Fratto.
Belleville, Illinois: Club #243, the Belleville

and windy day but the Scouts showed
excitement and joy at their RC experience.
Here’s the group.
Here’s what happens when you move one of
the control sticks.
The day was really windy but one of the club’s
instructors was able to show maneuvers.
