Once one Huckeths one finds it very difficult to not Hucketh. If fact one can find oneself wanting to Hucketh more and more.

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

I think I could go out on a limb and say that the majority of the people that fly out there regularly are Giant Scale guys. I definitely believe that it is the best site in the STL area (but I'm partial as I'm a a member there). The ground soaks up water pretty good.

Here are some pics from our open house in 2007, the grass is much better now. http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/f...tml#post250720

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!
