Hey guys kind of off topic but, does anyone know how the flying conditions are out at Orchard farms ? Is it muddy, are guys flying there big aircraft. The reason I ask is b/c I am considering other flying site options in the STL and it seems that the dudes at orchard farms are right up my alley. Thanks CNB |

The crack master is right out at OFRC the majority of everyday fliers are giant scale. and field conditions are very good I have gone out there right after rain storms and not had any problems. | ||||||||||||||||||

i have only been to orchard farms for the HF weekend last year and i can tell you right now that if i had the opportunity to associate with that field and those great people on a regular basis i would jump at the chance! the hospitality was second to none and the field condtions were fine. they sure take pride in that field. i can't imagine them not having that field in tip top shape at all times. there is just too much pride there!!!! see y'all in the summer! matt mikesh |

Matt, it was great seeing you again at the e-fest! Orchard Farm is most definately by far the BEST field anywhere in the st. louis area. I plan on joining the club this year if i can ever find enough money. it is quite expensive for me to join, and its about a 40min drive each way
