Rock River Aero modelers Society - 9-9-2007

Brian

Our flying club, Rock River Aero modelers Society, plans to hold a float fly with model airplanes at the Highwood Club grounds on Lake Koshkonong Sept 9th from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Usually this kind of event closes a little earlier being that is on a Sunday. I ran the idea by Don Busch at the DNR and he suggested that I run it by you so you will be aware of our event. There didn't seem to be any objection on his part and I want to address any issues that may come up concerning this event prior to it.

This is a sanctioned event by the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AKA as the AMA). At the present time it is expected that approximately 20 pilots and planes will be present depending on the weather. Since this is the first event that has been in this area that I am aware of in several years there may be some interest to you and others. Some of the planes that will be there will be scale models of the real thing. Some of these planes are technologically advanced and hopefully there will be some of them present to make an interesting day to say the least. All AMA safety rules will be in effect and enforced.
