Doug K is in for a spot. Thank you Hank!!

Thank you everyone for the replies and Mike D for help getting a plane in the air for a new guy..

I have a belly pan, just need a wing and stab. The plane is red/orange and white although it doesn’t really matter what color the wing is. If I can get him in the air and racing, then he can buy a new plane if he wants.

Thanks

I’m trying to get another racer into the air for a friend. Does anyone have a spare wing or tail sitting around? As along as it’s fixable, slightly damaged would be fine.

Thanks

Great News!!!!! 1.....I took a couple photos yesterday and the field is in the best shape I've ever seen it. All the rain created some grass and the park service came in a mowed it. Besides the mowing, they did quite a bit of clearing in the general area including removing all the homeless camps and...

Hi Ray I did look up the Florida race from 2022 to stay away from that weekend, but the Whittier race has been the same weekend or the following for several years now and I haven't heard of it being a "Race Killer". Unfortunately one of my key players that I depend on to run my event wasn't availabl...

Hello Pilots In an effort to assist the shock of not having a February Q40 race in Phoenix for the first time in over 30 years, the west coast race committee quickly put together a race schedule that will hopefully evolve in the future. First goal on the list was to have a race as close the the Phoe...

At the Champ Race this year, I was lucky to have enough time and be invited to visit where our engines are made. I was in shock at the amount of work that goes into cleaning up the case, chroming the sleeve, honing and fitting a piston to the sleeve, find the proper fitting head, putting those silly...
