The start of the contest season at Lost Hills is less than two weeks away. I would like to remind all the flyers that plan on attending the Fab Feb week of contest that we need to respect the new orchard that is south and west of our flying field. Last year we were not allowed to ride our motorcycles into the orchard. The owners have given us permission to ride into the orchard this past fall. When you enter the orchard, ride down the rows, which are defined by the plastic irrigation pipe. Please do not ride over the plastic pipe. If you went down the wrong row and your model is one or more rows away, park your motorcycle and walk to the model. If you have driven over the plastic pipe and I find out about it, you will be asked to leave the field. You will not be allowed to return for any more of the competition during the remainder of the week. This is a hard rule that I will enforce if we have any issues. The owners of the orchard are helping us in finding a new field and we need to respect their property.

Please be prepared to move if the drift sends the models into the orchard. The Holloway owners allow us to use their land to the north and the flight line will be moved to their property if needed.

At this time the field is very dry with no grass. Remember to drive slowly around other flyers that are parked on the field, as a fast moving vehicle will put up a cloud of dust. Also, the speed limit on the dirt roads into and out of the flying field is 20 mph.

I want to remind each of you who are planning on attending that we require a Lost Hills membership to fly on the field. You have the option to join the association or you can pay a $10 fee, which covers two weeks of flying. If you have not joined the association you still have time to sign up for membership by getting in touch with Brian VanNest. Brian’s e-mail is: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. This only applies for a one or two year membership. The $10 fee will be collected at the contest site. For each of the contest we will have a separate table set up near the contest headquarters to take membership.
