Go south on 95 and get off on Blue Heron. Then go a short distance, merge onto 710 Beeline... then left on Haverhill. Its only like a mile off 95. Left on haverhill, right into the park on your right pretty much as soon as you turn onto Haverhill. Its all the way in the back corner. Nice city owned paved runway....

When I work in Florida, I always bring a plane and go there when I work at Palm Beach.

You're looking for our field... the one Gremlin described above. It's run by RC Bush Pilots (http://www.rcbushpilots.com), but anyone who's current AMA can fly there. We have a whole range of flyers including giant scale, so bring it! We'd love to have you join the crew for a couple months.

It's a paved runway (more info on the website), but 33-35% is about as big as you want to get on our field (about 350' I think). We've got a couple guys with 30% and larger planes. Jupiter Island is about a 20-30 minute drive (in traffic) from us... we're just a straight shot down I-95 or the FL turnpike. Our field actually borders resides right up against the Turnpike.

Come out and ask for Phil, Brian, Wayne or Craig. One or all of us are there on weekends. Check the website under the "field" link for a Google map and driving directions. If you'd like to get a hold of us before hand PM me or email me through our website.

See ya when you come down!

Oh, and Gremlin... I met up with you and you gave me the Twist! You'll be happy to know I flew the snot out of it... still didn't dirt it and passed it along (free) to someone else who's been flying it every weekend! That thing has a *LOAD* of flights on it by now.

The giving keeps on going!!

Wayne! I wondered what happened to that rascal. It has served many people well now. I know it had 5 gallons of fuel through it when I gave it to you! Thanks for loaning me your field this winter. I went once...
