DO YOU WONDER why your club never
appears in this column? It is probably
because no one has sent me any pictures or
information. Everything I receive appears
sometime.
Crown Point, Indiana: The Crown Point
Aeromodelers’ secretary, Russ Butchart,
sent in the following pictures and
information from the club’s fifth annual
New Year’s Day Chili Fly.
Everyone had a good time. The
temperature was in the high 20s. There
was a lot of flying, a lot of hot chili, and a
lot of fun.
A feathered spectator was on hand to
watch and offer advice about winter flying.
Here’s the whole gang.
Dave Epperson is ready to fly.
Some guidance was provided by the
winter-flying advisor.
Les Burdsal’s getting some air time.
John Erickson looks happy that he just
made a successful landing.
Don Tamositis and his granddaughter
sample the chili.
(L to R) John Erickson (mouth open, he
can’t believe it will fly!), Russ Miller, Ron
Parent, and Ed Smith.
A few of the aircraft in the pits.
Mount Vernon, Indiana: Indiana
Associate Vice President (AVP) Frank
Roales sent in a few pictures from the
Rend Lake RC Club’s swap meet.
Swap meets are the place to shop. One
man’s junk is another man’s treasure.
Rick Talbert and Dave Sruggs at the
check-in desk look over a B-17 brought
in by Kerry Brown of Vincennes, Indiana.
This is an early view of some of the
aircraft as the doors opened and the
crowd started filtering in.
