Lost Hills Update

Positive news – Highway construction finished and new El Toro Loco open

Special Congrats to Randy Secor who appears to be “THE” F1P Junior coach for the USA.  At a recent “power” session at Lost Hills he got new junior Henry past his first F1P launch .. and a good launch it was. Randy learnt a lot about flying F1P with his son Cody and is passing that on to others.  Henry has a tough tradition to follow but his is on the right path with the right coach.

Hatscheck International Challenge, NY

CD’s Report

The Hatscheck International Challenge was held on Sunday, May 17th.  All flying was done on one day so that people would not have to stay over at a hotel. The Ulms drive from Virginia and camped overnight at the field. Participants wore masks and some had gloves. Entry fees were paid in full to avoid giving change. Score cards were handed in at the end of the contest.  During the day there was an easterly drift and only one catapult glider ended up on a tall tree next to the river.  Everyone had a chance to spend a day outdoors and hope to see even more at the Annual at the end of June.

MMM 14-Round Contest, July 10-12

From: Pete McQuade

As the nation begins to emerge from the COVID-19 restrictions, the MMM is still planning to hold our 41st Annual 14-Rounder, as originally planned, Fri-Sun, July 10-12, 2020 in Denver, CO.  It’s a great time of the year to get away from the summer heat and enjoy flying on a 22,000-acre field with a fabulous view of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains.  We’ll have a large slate of FAI, AMA, NFFS, and SAM events.  More details will be forthcoming shortly.
