OK gang, the Indoor flying season is done.
Blue skies and warmer weather is here so get outside and find some boomer thermals to fly your model into.

Take a break from the building board. Come on out and join your pals on the flying field!

OK gang, we’ve heard the rumors that clubster William Skelly has been busy building a new peanut scale model with a landing gear that retracts after takeoff.
Well, it’s official – William has completed his Dayton-Wright RB-1 model and logged his first official ROG (Rise Off Ground) flight with the gear retracting after takeoff.
We caught up with William at the Glastonbury Modelers Spring Fling last Sunday in the Glastonbury HS gym and got the lowdown. He even shared an illustrated design document (link under the video) so you can build your own. Our hat’s off to William and his nifty design!
It came as a pleasant surprise when THE STEALTH SQUADRON was invited to exhibit at the New England Model Engineering Society(NEMES) model engineering show at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation, Waltham MA. The museum allows NEMES to put on a show every February. NEMES is an eclectic organization and the show included everything from live steam to compressed air engines, gunsmiths and water powered displays. Herb
Cotterly a Stealth Squadron member demonstrated his ΒΌ scale model A engine. Six members of the Stealth Squadron put on a display of our stick and tissue models. From the start, there was considerable interest. Even prior to the show opening other exhibitors made a visit to our table and when the doors opened at 10am we had a crowd of three deep, and many people signed Steves sheet to get info off of our website. Many of those visiting the table shared stories of building and crashing Guillow models in their youth, and had no idea that An organization like the FAC existed! One can only hope that such interest will swell our membership. NEMES impressed enough that we are invited back next year and we have been asked to give a presentation at one of their monthly meetings.
We are an active group of free flight aircraft model builders dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the hobby.
Based in Massachusetts, the Stealth Squadron is fortunate to count among its members some of the true masters of the trade. All club members are very supportive and freely share information and encouragement.
We welcome you to our web site and hope that you will get involved!
