Mowing mid-day today 8/22/24, likely closing the flight line for 3 hours 11-2ish. Reminder – combat is this coming Monday evening, hot dogs, chips and soda available (donations accepted).. fun to watch and even more fun to fly.. I’ll have a few loaner planes so come on out and give it a try! Jim

Mowing this evening (Wed 8/14) FIELD CLOSED 7PM
Combat at KRAM scheduled for Monday,(come on out and watch or fly one of my spare planes). With us hosting combat I need to get mowing in soon.. given the chances for rain tomorrow and Friday, I’ve elected to mow this evening so the field will be closed for at least a few hours. I can allow flying as I mow the parking lot so you might be able to get in some flights. Given the winds and high temp/humidity I hope this doesn’t’ spoil anyone’s plans to fly. Cheers! Jim

Mowing of the infield approaches, 50′ of outfield and parking area took place two days ago, the north 2/3 of the outfield will be mowed tomorrow fairly early morning (Sunday June 16) before the heat climbs. NOTE: I will be at Flite Fest this week so no mowing is scheduled till I return, likely the next mowing will be a week from tomorrow Sunday June 23rd. The GENERATOR surging issue has been addressed. It might return though. I would like state the policy for the club generator. 1) The club does NOT purchase the gas for the generator. 2) The […]
Mowing and Generator Fuel Policy
Based on tomorrow’s hourly weather forecast, I will hold off mowing till 2pm as winds from 2-6pm are not very R/C friendly. And rain at 2am-3am is predicted, the grass would be sort of wet to mow in the a.m. So you dawn patrollers, have at it I won’t be interrupting flying till 2pm. B
June 6 mowing – 2 to 6pm
Once again this week the weather on Wednesday night wasn’t conducive to flying, so I jumped the gun again and mowed all but some of the parking area. One of these weeks I’ll actually mow only on Thursday. I will be mowing the remaining parking area Thursday morning, but feel free to fly while I mow.. assuming you can follow the rules and keep the plane north of the flight line 🙂 Hopefully the wind will subside overnight, great for flying online this evening where it really blew a lot of grass clippings in my face/eyes.
