Hello folks, Just in the process of booking tickets from the 23rd till 12th. I'll be staying in Edison, Newark in New Jersey for that time, any huckers or huck fields nearby I can come down and visit? To prove I am NOT circle flyer, heres a video of me flying http://www.flyinggiants.com/gallery/...=30206&cat=508 I promise if anyones kind enough to let me have a go of their planes, I will not abuse it like my Acromaster (which has since exploded during a blender) ![]() I may also be going to a few other parts of the states, don't know yet, but If I do I'll keep you guys posted. Looking forward to meeting some of you! Cheers Shahid

If you ever come down to FL you can fly some of my planes. Last time I was in the UK was 2002. I had a blast training with the Parachute regiment. However, it was the pubs, clubs and good times in general over there I had that I miss the most. Cant wait to get back over there for some beer and good times.

Cheers guys! Of course the offer goes the otherway around, if any of you come down this way (Im in London) then do give us a shout ![]() Unfortunately as has happened before the ticket booking has gone awry and it hangs in the balance?! About modes, its a rough split between Mode 1 and Mode 2 in the UK, of course theres alot of pi** taking and so forth. I'm a mode 2 flyer although I do know a mode 4 flyer!!

Looks like ticket has gone thru, flying next Monday. As much as you loathe me Jon would be nice to annoy you in person, far more effective hey

Shahid - I don't know if you've ever used Google Earth or not, but I have a file there that has over 1800 RC Club Runways nailed down to within feet of the center of the runway. If you want to try it here is the link to the file. http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthrea...r/402368/page/ If you already use Google Earth it'll automatically put the file down in the bottom in the temp folder. Just turn them ALL on and then fly to which ever city you want to check out and see if I have anything listed close by. If you like have MSN Streets and Trips for the U.S., you might want to use my Excel files instead. You can load them directly into most programs comparable. The good thing about the Excel files is they have a ton more of info on each club including Club Web Links. If this is more up your alley try this link to my little MSN RC Website. http://groups.msn.com/PuttsRCHomePage/ Have a great visit to the States and I hope you get to enjoy some flying. If you ever get out West you can always look my club up. Were in the NE corner of Wyoming and have a great facility. Later Gregg
