There are links on a number of websites, here's the direct contribution page on the NSRCA website:

http://www.nsrca.us/index.php/f3a-donations

For those wanting to send Money Orders or checks, we'll need to wait for Kevin or someone more knowledgeable than myself to tell you where those might be sent.

There are several different ways to donate to the U.S. F3A team, as Zeeb posted you can find the link on the NSRCA website www.nsrca.us, you can also find links to the paypal account on www.jtecrc.com, www.shulmanaviation.com, and www.f3aunlimited.com, as well as the team site www.teamusaf3a.com. Also, the direct paypal address is F3ATeamFund@NSRCA.org

You will also find on those sites that you can purchase merchandise such as t-shirts, raffle tickets, stick airplanes, and even decals.

A general Team update. I've got my new plane almost dialed in and practicing while also getting ready for Top Gun (fingers crossed). Brett is just finishing up school, then after that he's going to start practicing, and every so often we'll get together to practice together. Andrew is flying almost daily and currently has Chad Northeast (Team Canada) at his place to get some practice in together. Joseph is making a schedule to start a practice regimen and keep up with his school work. And Mark and Kevin are probably pulling their hair out working on the trip logistics.

We are all very grateful for the support received and are working hard to be ready for South Africa.

Everyone who thinks the current trend of Pattern planes are beautiful.... donate $10.00
Everyone who thinks the current trend in pattern plane looks like some over radiated deep ocean trench
fish with a thyroid problem... donate $20.00


I will donate $20.00!!

lol

That's a good looking plane you have there JAS.

I practiced with Joseph and Don this past weekend. It was with a big gas plane, but still any stick time for him will help.

I'm going to a pattern meet this weekend with Al and Kevin and try to help raise funds for your trip.

If we sell enough tee shirts can I go?

Jerry, if you can talk RCR or one of the many companies that sponsors your teams into becoming a corporate sponsor we will figure out some way to let you fly in the worlds.

Mike, I really have no idea what you mean by "the current trend in pattern plane looks like some over radiated deep ocean trench fish with a thyroid problem..." LOL

Thanks Jerry. I think it'll take more than shirt sales to get you to be able to join us, but like Kevin said.... except maybe the flying in it part Can't wait to hear how you guys do at the pattern contest, assuming there's an ESC located in time.

Kevin, Andrew, myself and the rest of the US Team want to thank all who donated and bought stuff at the Joe-Nall.

I still think that the raffle is the best bet as only 1000 tickets are to be sold. IF we don't sell them all, then the odds of you winning go up...

Hi Everyone,

The Team is getting ready to book the airline tickets the first week of June and we are going from 3 airports on 3 different airlines. During our discussions about travel, another way for donations was brought up. Using airline miles would help offset some of the cost.

The Team will be using Delta, KLM and South African Airways to get there.
Delta/KLM are partners with http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_.../airlines.html
SAA is partners with http://www.flysaa.com/us/en/footerli...rAlliance.html

If anyone would like to donate miles, or if you're a World traveler with millions of miles and would just like to donate a ticket, contact Mark Atwood (atwoodm@paragon-inc.com) or Kevin Young (kcy01@hotmail.com) to find out how. Or contact a Team member if you want to make a direct mileage donation.

Thank you,
Team USA F3A

C'mon folks.....

step up!!!!
