Flying Field is currently open Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays President's Message This has been a very exciting year for me. We have a large number of new members; we have gone from 74 in December to 130+ so far this year. A variety of skill levels from experienced to new hobbyists to join the tremendous talent we already had in the club. Our building session and first flying session with the Boy Scouts was very successful and that is really where the future of our club lies. Getting people interested in model aviation and helping them hone their skills. We are now into our second quarter with the flying field at the Great Park and the number of fliers seems to grow every day we can fly. Our club web-site is up and running, OCRCC.COM and while it is still being developed, it has many good features in it. The reason I tied the web-site to the flying field is simple. In the tab "Club Info", there is a schedule of Field Marshals. Until we had the web-site, scheduling Field Marshals was difficult because no one could see where the need was. That problem has now been eliminated and we do need Field Marshals. Remember, the flying field is closed, even on scheduled days, unless we have a Field Marshal assigned and present. The next meeting's program is "From Plan to Plane". During the course of the meeting, we will go from a plan, to a complete foamy airplane. You will learn how to cut it out and put it together. A little farther into the future, we are working with the Great Park for their Re- Opening day and we will need assistance with that. While it is still being developed, we are looking at having up to 3 flight simulators (needing Docents to instruct on their use) and one to several flight demonstrations. John Owsinski is heading that effort so you will be hearing from him. Stay in the air - Dave Great Park Anniversary Event Great Park anniversary event will be happening on Saturday, July 11 from 10AM to 4PM.

El Toro Weather Forecast, CA AT6 Texan has been used extensively in air races. Highly modified ones such as this are seen at racing circuits hitting speed in excess of 100mph! F16 models such as this have been popularized with advancements in electric ducted fan (EDF) technology. This particular model can reach speed of 140mph! This is a highly sophisticated micro RC helicopter, Align T-Rex 250. Capable of full 3D aerobatic routine, yet small enough to fit on the palm of your hand! One of the more popular scale warbird at the field, F4U Corsair, has distinctive gull wings. This is an all foam E-Flight model coming in for landing. One of the great racers of 1930, the Granville Brothers Gee Bee, is faithfully reproduced by this scale model kit.
