Aviation Day at Lawrence Airport


There’s been a lot going on gang and we’re doing our best to keep you informed.  First up is a follow up to our last post A Tribute to Ed Novak.

Plan & Article Downloads Available!

Yep, all 9 Tribute Event plans (incl. articles) are now available on this site for download FREE.   Not since Comet sold kits for a dime have we seen such a deal!  Those keyboard wizards at HQ even put a NRE Tribute Event page on the top menu of this site to house the plans, tips, rules, etc.  Several Tribute Models have already been built – Rick P’s Rigid Midget is under construction (sidebar pic) and Tom N’s got a video of his Commando flying.  Better get building now as rumors are the first Tribute Event will be held this Fall at a Durham, CT meet.

Aviation Day at Lawrence Airport

Stealth Squadroneers continued their outreach to air-minded folks of all ages with a stick and tissue model airplane exhibit at the Lawrence Airport National Aviation Day on August 17.  Our roving reporter was there and managed to snap a few pics of the action (sidebar).  Steve E. brought a box of Guillow’s gliders left over from the terrific  Spencer-Peirce Little Farm event earlier this summer.  These gliders were handed out to interested kids and parents who came by our table.  And what a hit they were!  Kids just love these simple flying models  — we’re hoping to do more of these events.

Fun Flying at Woodsom Farm

OK, you’ve finished that model and you just can’t wait until the next club meet to fly it.  You’ve glided it into the couch and maybe over that patch of soft grass in your backyard, but you need a bit more room to wind it up and try a test flight or two.

Sure, you can venture to your local playground or ballfield – heck that’s where our Tribute Models were intended to be flown.  Another option is the back field off the parking lot at Woodsom Farm.  A few clubsters have been gathering recently at this “testing field” on calm mornings.  They’ve been having a ball just flying for fun, and getting their models ready for the club flying meets (see Calendar for dates & flyers).  Often this group finishes with a cup of coffee at a local shop in Amesbury.  If you’re interested in getting on their group text, reach out via the Contact Us form and we’ll fill you in.  Remember, this hobby and our club is all about having FUN!  

Keep building and see you at the field!
