Fab Feb – America’s Cup Banquet Update

The Lost Hills Community has some restriction on the number of people that can attend functions so we will not be holding the America’s Cup Banquet in 2022.
The America’s Cup  Awards ceremony will be on the field after MaxMen mini event, Friday Feb 18, 2022. SCAT will provide finger food. All will be welcome and asked to bring their drinks and chairs.

For people who have indicated that they will attend the cost will be removed from their Fab Feb schedule and bill.


 

B and E For Sale at Lost Hills

From: THOMAS IOERGER

Hi Roger
Please let everyone know that I will have for sale a new Gorban medium F1E and a new Stepan Stephanchuk carbon F1B with two sets of carbon wings and Andriukov close fold front end and electronic timer with me at Lost Hills. I will also have a lightly
used modern F1B with Stephanchuk carbon wings, Andriukov E. timer , and Vivchar close fold front end for sale.

F1B conflicts with my F1Q flying and I have changed to electronic steering for F1E so these models are excess to my requirements and could get anyone going with first class equipment. Please enquire to tgioerger@cox.net
