LookNatU2 - Sorry I didn't see this before you needed it. Not sure if you have ever used this Club Locator, but it's Bill Lee's AMA Club Locator. I hooked up with him a couple of years ago and provide an additional link for a lot of clubs which actually shows the Clubs Runway location rather then the normal location of the Club Rep's by zip code. Here is the link:
http://www.ama-dist-8.org/Clubs/Locator.php

For instance I put in Yankton's zip code of 57078 and a 50 mile radius and came up with two clubs. If you look at the results for BERESFORD AREA RADIO FLYERS, you'll notice an extra link that says:Link to GPS and Aerial Imagery . This is my data. Here is an example of the page it takes you to : http://www.ama-dist-8.org/Clubs/Show...hp?clubno=2577

If your interested I also have a sub set of all of my data (over 1200 clubs so far) in Google Earth. If you haven't used it, the first time it will ask you to download a free program to run it. If you like Google Maps you will love Google Earth. This link takes you to my file, try clicking on it and it will automatically open Google Earth if you already use it, or it should prompt you to download the program if you don't.

Hope one of these may help you with future trips.

Good Flying to You All

SD is very pretty, I spent some time flying bank checks over the Dakotas. Spent a couple weeks in Watertown, SD for training, nice place. Darn cold in the winter though.
