FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK
Greetings and salutations
to you all!
Well, it looks like the paving
of the field has been put on the shelf indefinitely.
Last I heard due to budget
restrains in the City of Sierra Vista, this might not get introduced even
in the coming year.
I guess we’re going to have
to look for alternate means to get it done or lobby the council harder
(nicely now!) until we get an affirmative consensus.
How helpful are we to each
other in helping one another advance in the RC hobby field?
I read with dismay a letter
to the Editor of Model Aviation were members of a club, because of their
advanced knowledge in the field of model airplane flying and their maturity
in age, scoffed and ridiculed a younger member that was teaching some newly
acquired members of their club. |
Now I’m rather new into the hobby and although mature, (39 and holding
a few decades) I know for a fact that nobody in the hobby was born knowing
everything about flying model aircraft. Somewhere in the process (unless
you were a natural and able to teach yourself) there was some one, a mentor
that loved the hobby so much that he/she wanted the hobby to advance in
you, so he/she took you under his/her wing and helped you advance in the
hobby.
Are there some of you out
there that have gotten so good that now feel everybody else is inferior
and they can't come off their pedestals to help advance those new in the
hobby?
Let’s not allow this kind
of attitude in our club.
Share your knowledge
In the long run it will benefit
you and most importantly it will benefit the Club.
By the way as soon as I receive
some information on the 2001 Fathers Fun Fly, I will get the results posted.
I also must apologize
for the lateness of the Newsletter but I’ve been so busy I’ve been meeting
myself coming and going.
Happy Flying!
