Everyone is more then welcome and thank you for the compliment. I just keep adding it to it seems like 1 to 3 fields a week average it seems like. Mostly with the help of my fellow pilots out there who notice they haven't had the stick pin put in the map for their field yet Just keep'em coming guys. The Google Earth file also continues to be a popular one, it has averaged 13 downloads a day for the 562 days I've had it posted (Yea, now that is being a geek).

Later, and I hope you find a new Field to visit or fly at using the data

Gregg, I was looking up bomber field in Houston a few weeks back, and found it on google maps. With the float lake noted. Guess who posted it... GPUTT!!! Thanks for all your work dude! This is awesome!

[GPutt33]

Max - Glad you were able to find Bomber Field. My goal is to visit every Field I've got pegged. Of course that will only take the next 100 years. Wonder what I'll be flying by then Bomber Field looks like it must be pretty awesome with the two dedicated sites.

I just accepted a new job and transfer with the Company last week, so I'm afraid my time trying to keep the RC database going is slow down a little bit for awhile. The move is going to be GREAT though. Headed to Sheridan Wyoming which is the home of the Flying Cowboys, which just happens to be my brother's Club Hope to have MANY flights side by side with him in the future and rest of the guys. Going to miss the Club here in Gillette, they have been awesome to fly with as well. The good thing is I've got about 6 years of membership dues paid up here in Gillette, and since it's only about 1.5 hours away, I've warned them "I'll Be Back".

Later Guys and have a Great and Safe Thanksgiving Holiday.

Well, were kind of moved. My brother's house happens to be empty, so while we continue to look for a place to live he has asked us to move in and stay for awhile. Very lucky to have a brother like this. He also has an awesome Plane Shop and so ALL of my RC got moved by ME and is going to be ready to go when the snow disappears.

I have made quite a few additions to the Google Earth and Excel files and have them posted as of last night. Hope some of you continue to use them and enjoy them.

Later
Gregg

I built this for the MAAC (Model Aeronautics Association of Canada).

Hi Guys - glad you like the file.

Aubej - Thanks for the link to the Canadian file, if you don't mind I'll try to import most of them into my master file I am running behind on adding the Canadian Clubs, but man this will help a bunch.

Hi Ya Scott - Good to hear from ya !! Believe it or not were in the middle of another transfer...... This is another good one for us though. I got an offer in December for a position only about 125 miles west of Gillette over in Sheridan. Now were right at the base of the Big Horn Mountains, my folks only live about 20 miles away up on the mountain and my brother and his wife live here. He's been into RC a LOT longer then I have and has just an awesome RC shop!! He's on a temp assignment down in Oklahoma right now and so they're letting us house sit while we try and find one of our own. Hopefully this will be the last move and will be our retirement home. You should see some of the shops, I mean houses we've been looking at I was able to bring all of my planes and radios over here so as soon as the snow is gone I'll be able to get out to the field. Great club here as well as the one I left in Gillette as well as the one I left in Ohio ............ Tell all of the guys hello for me If we can get togther to fly again I'd love it, I think you'd notice quite a difference in my flying since I left Findlay

Hey Roger, I'll be happy to send the Magellan files, just send me an email to GPutt33@msn.com and I'll attach the 4 files. I'm using MapSend Topo USA and an eXplorist XL. My excel file is the master for everything I do, but I also keep up to date everything I change or any additions in the Google Earth file as well as the Magellan files. Since there is a 500 point limit on waypoints in one file, I've got 4 files broke down by NW, NE, SW, SE United States, and a couple of them are getting ready to bump the 500 count limit. I do have an International file as well but I'm afraid I haven't added all of the Clubs to it. I also combined the AMA with the Non-AMA clubs in the Magellan files. Like I said, just send me a seperate email direct. I checked my PM messages and don't see any in there from you I'm afraid. The only draw back right now is since my computer is in storage, I'm using my brothers, and so I have my backup files at work, so I'll send them to you from there when I here from you.

Later all and good flying.
Gregg
