I fly for the pure fun of it and nothing less.

Hi guys,
One of our youngsters got tangled in a mid air this past weekend in St
Louie...the wing tip is pretty much trashed.
I thought I had a dinged spare but turns out its a Perfect tip.

I used a lot of silkspan and Jap tissue on my Nordics and Wakefield

1. The Airforce will be required to fly all planes of every type
inverted to check each aircraft's CG.
2. The Boy and Girl Scouts will be disbanded so all kids can start
their LSF levels.
3. International squirmishes will be replaced with man on man flyoffs
with TWO popoffs allowed !

Well Mike, this is not a surprise in my book, but RCSE has been a great web
cornerstone for a lot of years for RC soaring. I will admit that I spend a
fair amount of time on RCGroups, and the pics and all are great. There is a
lot of gobbledygook there just like there has been the same here,
I guess all good things must come to an end.
I for one appreciate all of the interaction that RCSE has afforded us over the years. I feel like I got to knowsome people through RCSE far better than if it had not be available as a forum for us.
Good, bad, interesting, dull, exciting, or Gordy! It
OK, I understand the motives for shutting RCSE down. 10 years is a long

what's out there.

There is a group RCSE at yahoo groups. I was thinking the same and

I like yahoogroups since I can get the forum as email but it does

Its been a great tool, its been frustrating, its had its share of great wisdom and abject stupidity. Its time to move on, and RCG has plenty of room for the same level of intelligence, wisdom, curiosity and foolishness.

So how will we communicate now?
As in letting everyone know about contests, for sale goodies, finding each
other during a visit?
Any suggestions?
I suppose we'll have to surf the topics, nooks and crannies of RC Antonymous

Or set up something on the new Blog spot.
