Many Americans have a tendency to take things for granted, and Radio Control (RC) fliers are no different. Flying sites are an RC club's most important asset, and the most-often overlooked. Since I am relatively new to the hobby, imagine my shock when my club, the Tiffin Aeromodelers, lost two fields. Without warning, the first flying site was plowed by a farmer. The second flying site was in a new industrial park, leased to the club by the city of Tiffin, Ohio. We had no worries there-no baseball diamonds, no kids' soccer fields-we felt like we were in heaven!
