Hey kids...
Welcome to the Chatham CAN-AM in 2 weeks Sept 12,13, the last NC IMAC contest before the NC finals in Wheeler. Looking forward to seeing y'all and I promise better weather than last time. Well I hope.. We've got some nice prizes from Smart Fly and maybe more. There are registrations on both the IMAC website http://www.mini-iac.com/Home/Control...8/default.aspx and on the Canadian Scale Aerobatics website http://www.peneloperc.com/index.php?...=145&Itemid=51 For those that haven't been before, we have a nice 6 acre flying field with unobstructed approaches. We'll be flying 2 flightlines, with all classes and some Freestyle- I'll have a good sound system on hand to liven it up! There is plenty of room for camping, and we have a clubhouse building that you can charge batteries if needed. There will be a concession stand for lunches. If the group wants to again, we'll go for a good time dinner at the steakhouse... apparently they have beer... and maybe a drumset Mike M! Our field GPS coordinates-- 42.289692, -82.208517 Map to the field-- http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en...=16&iwloc=addr And a hotels list-- Super8 and Travelodge in Chatham are probably the most convenient. http://www.chatham-kent.ca/recreatio...and+Motels.htm Let's see some more registrations in advance so we can get geared up please guys! BTW this contest counts in the NC points race... Looking forward to it! ![]() Thanks Don goneflyin@ciaccess.com cell: 818 912 9158 if you have any questions |

Hey Ward,
last year was poor due to weather, but the year before we had about 40 contestants! It was a great time. Hope you can make it! Don |

In 2008 it got very wet and windy, lots of pilots came and tried to wait out the rain but that didn't work.
We still had a good time visiting RM classic cars and drooling over some very rare and gorgeous cars. |

Don, I think you are going to have to throw in another tour of your shop to help sweeten the deal for some people.
