Roger, I received a call today from Mike Fruciano to inform me the Sal
had passed away this morning. This was quite a shock to me, and will
take a while to get used to. Sal was a true friend to Free Flight, and
to everyone in the Free Flight community. He will missed. I feel as if
I personally have lost one of my best friends. Mike requested that there
be no calls made to house, but said that they appreciate cards. They can
be sent to Ann Fruciano, 1917 E. Ranch Rd, Tempe, Az. 85284. gb
Hoosier Cup 2003
================
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
After a two-year hiatus, the Hoosier Cup FAI contest returned to the
International Aeromodeling Center in Muncie, Indiana (the Hoosier state).
Thanks to Lee Campbell and Orville Stewart for making the arrangements and
administering the contest. Their "Spring Opener" contest was held
simultaneously on May 17-19.
The Friday prior to the contest day held the promise of perfect weather for
Free Flight. Winds were light and variable, the sun was shining, thermals
were booming, the grass was green (that's lawn grass, Jon) and temperatures
were suitable for wearing T-shirts and shorts. Jim Parker showed up about 6
pm after getting lost on the way from the airport to the field. He told me
that without his GPS, he might have ended up in Michigan. Anyway, we flew
'til about 8 pm and then had dinner with the Gunders and Lorbieckis.
Saturday was a different weather story. At 8 am it was raining a bit and the
wind was out of the East at about 10 mph giving us the shortest possible
drift direction for the field. Rain continued off-and-on throughout the day
and temps were in the low to mid-60s F. The max was set at 180 for the 9 am
start based on the distance a Nostalgia rubber model flew in the "Spring
Opener" contest that started at 8 am. As the day went on, the max was
reduced to 150 and then to 120 for rounds 6 -7. It turned out than no one
maxed out the day. In fact, no one had a clean score after round 2. The
mid-day rounds were windy enough to stop circle-towing of F1As. Those that
did circle tow were the most atheletic and had to shorten their field of
drift by long down wind runs. Speaking of atheleticism, it was a pleasure to
watch the kids fly, Peter Barron and Austin Gunder. That's right guys,
Austin G, the Jr F1J World Champ, with an F1A . He seemed as comfortable in
the wind as an old pro! He also told me that he being heavily recruited to
play college football.
In deference to the weather, many of us short-fused our DTs including Greg
Simon who ended up in first place for F1B. Bill Shailor gamely continued
after a mechanical problem in the first round ended with a score of 5
seconds. The change in the F1A attempt rule making a DTd flight count, even
if under 20 seconds, dropped Andrew Barron in the 4th round when a mechanical
failure caused the model to DT upon launch.
For the mini events on Sunday, the wind stayed the same, but the rain had
stopped. F1G was settled on the last round when Richard Woods' model
spiraled-in during the glide. The problem was due to loss of a balancing
weight under the stab. He was having chase-bike problems just before the
last round and was distracted from his usual pre-flight routine. The only
flyoff of the contest was between Austin Gunder and Jim Haught in F1J. A
3-minute max with a 5 second engine run was agreed to for the flight. Austin
made it, but Jim decided to short fuse at 2:55 as a tactical measure.
Unfortunately for Jim, his model was only about 20 ft up when it DTd to come
down 1 second short!

Our expert on neutral point(s) was Hal Crane.
He did a paper on the subject for an early
NFFS Symposium.
His identity with the subject was so strong that
we gave him the sobrequet..Hal - Neutral Point - Crane.
Hal passed away some years ago. I last saw him out
jogging, in the early morning, at West Baden
during one of the Indoor World Champs.
The secrets may have passed on with him....

Tech request for SCAT
=====================
Author :
Hi I am looking for some help with a project and Alan Petersen recommended
that I write to this address with my inquiry. This is my projected plan:
I am hoping to build a slow speed wind tunnel (.5 -11m/s hopefully) in the
next 2 and 1/2 months, and I wish to find data on propeller performance at=
very low reynolds numbers, and how Re and mach number affect prop
performance. I would like my research to have applications not only to
modellers but also to UAV (unmannced aerial vehicles) which fly at similar
reynolds numbers, around 5000-10,000.
I have plans for a wind tunnel that was made in the 1930s which is
similar to my proposed one, but slightly larger, which I obtained from the
1986 NFFS magazine. Apparently, making precise instrumentation is one of
the
most difficult tasks when making a tunnel. I think that my proposed wind
tunnel will be about 24" in diameter and I will test props roughly 12" in
diameter. Hopefully I will able to get useful information on lift, drag,
and thrust.
I was hoping that people would know or know someone who has experience with
wind tunnels, in making them, in past tests, etc? I was under the impress=
ion
that there were no wind tunnels out there that can get the infinitesimal
readings that I am looking for. Any help or incite would be extremely
valuable and appreciated.
Sincerely,
Fw: Low Speed Wind Tunnel

Neutral Point
=============
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Mike Seagrave recently wondered how to determine the neutral point. Here is
a way by glide testing that can do that.
The only way I can tell how to determine the NP is to build a hand launch
glider, placing the CG starting maybe at mid wing MAC. The HLG could have
the same relative wing and tail area of one of your known models. Make sure
that the stab can be warped or an elevator applied that can hold its
deflection. Trim the model to glide smoothly. From this you will have
learned just how much push you give the model.
Now, launch the glider with a bit faster speed at the same angle relative to
the ground. Do it several times to make sure the results remain the same.
If the glider is stable it will pitch up from your launch..
Now move the CG aft maybe 10 percent MAC, retrim for good glide and then the
harder push. Keep moving the CG until the harder push does not change the
flight path up or down, within reason. This, then is the NP. A lot of hard
work but with sure results.

2003 Northern California Free Flight Champs-FAI Results
=======================================================
Here are the FAI results to the best of my knowledge. If there are any
discrepancies, have participants get in touch with me.
As many of you already know, we had to fly under shortened maxes (120 seconds)
for rounds four and five on Saturday because of wind, rain, and drift
conditions.
General Overview of Contest Conditions:
We decided to place the line just east of the bridge and ditch since drift was
heading generally north. Our normal path to the eastern ridge was not an option
because there was a good chance that cars could not traverse the ditch without
getting stuck. Even though it had rained most of the week prior to the contest,
the ground was firm except for water patches in the low areas.
After the end of the third round (noon time), we broke for lunch hour and the
now traditional OCD barbecue with chicken, hamburgers, polish sausage, salads
and pies.
As it turns out, we could have flown another 180 round but just as we were
getting ready to resume flying, we had a rain squall and decided to cut the
maxes to 120 seconds. The same line location was used for the remainder of
Saturday as well as Sunday.

As can be seen, getting two-minute maxes was not that easy. Many were fooled or
teased by what looked like good air, only to fall out of small, tight thermals.
On Sunday morning, those in the fly-off chose not to tempt early wind direction
towards the northwest. The four-way tie breaker in F1A will be settled at Big
Al’s Shootout at Lost Hills, Memorial Day Weekend.

9 Kim Scheiman (Jr.) 95 92 64 50 ---- 301
Watching the guys in the Wakefield flyoffs was a real treat on Sunday morning.
Surprisingly, drift was not that bad and it didn’t take long for the threesome
to wind and launch. Only six seconds separated George from Alex’s winning time
and Dick Wood was only five seconds behind George.
It may be that John and Rich will require a flyoff for fourth and fifth places
for America’s Cup points so, be forewarned.
Philip broke a few motors and had difficulty in the second round. Otherwise he
may have had a chance to make the flyoffs. His sister Kim gave it a real try
after damaging her airplane in the first round (her hand hit the prop on
launch). With encouragement from family and competitors, she picked herself up
and continued flying

Dave Shirley has been coming on, big time. This time he was the only one to max
out. Halliday may have been in the flyoff as well but it was said that he had
other commitments later in the day. Probably got tired of wet feet and the
retrieval terrain!
Doug suffered problems with his primary model in the third round and went to a
backup just before the end of the round. As the airplane left his hand, the
engine sounded rich and began to lose velocity. It came back to earth but was
probably saved from damage because of the soft earth.

Again, only one individual maxed out. Bill Davis took advantage of Mike’s air
picking ability with the use of cattail fluff.
To my knowledge, Dick was the only competitor trying out an F1P design so he
elected to stop flying Coupe because of time constraints with two events flying
in rounds.

Norm could have walked away with all the marbles since he was the only one that
was clean after four rounds. He has become a master with the Buddenbohm Mini-
Maxer. In the fifth round, all he probably had to do was bring it to the top of
the line with a gentle release, since it looked as if the air was good enough
for a max. But he elected to bring it around in the breeze and had too much
line tension. Nothing could save the glider in its dive towards the gully
filled with water. Martyn and Bob wisely told him not to fly it because of the
moisture. When he returned with a backup before the end of the round, his
launch was too strong and the glider lost valuable altitude in its vain attempt
to recover from the excessive speed.

We would have had a four man fly-off but Tony Robertson had a long trip back to
Utah and elected not to fly.
Jim went off pattern to the east and was not centered in the thermal. Bill and
Dave had their glide patterns adjusted differently. Bill’s was pretty tight
while Dave’s was weather-vaning. It hung for the longest time pointing into the
wind before slowly turning downwind. I don’t think he made even three complete
turns before making his three minute flight. Unfortunately, even though making
his flyoff flight, Bill suffered damage to his wingtip joint when DT’ing to the
ground. That finished him.
At the awards ceremony, Dave was reminded that any ties for first place had to
be completed for points. So he put up a short flight, knowing Bill had already
gone home. He set the timer in the wrong groove and his airplane headed
straight into the tarmac after climbing over several hundred feet. It’d take
too much time to remove the plug of sod in the venture so he went to a back-up
ship. Thankfully, that one flew long enough to make it official!
Again, we had a great time, despite the forecast. Saturday could have been
dicey but Sunday was a real joy. I didn’t hear of any complaints and some
actually went home with a few hundred dollars in their pockets! Namely, Dick
Douglas (San Jose), Ron Hernandez (Alaska), Matthew Kruse (Anaheim Hills),
Frank Pollard (Port Townsend, WA), Nicholas Rossi (only seven and from Folsom),
and Bob Stalick (Albany, OR).
Thanks for joining us and come back next year! Fred

IMAC's annual Spring Small Field Contest
========================================
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Mosley's excellent report prompts me to once again open my big mouth and
write. Yesterday was to be the IMAC's annual Spring Small Field Contest. By
the time we set up and made a few test flights it started raining and
blowing like crazy. We sat in our cars waiting for the weather to break as
Charlie Sotich now king of kite flyers and perennial secretary predicted. It
broke not long after I (Pres.) and Ed Konefess (C.D.) Called the Meet and
rescheduled for May 24th. The sun came out and the wind died down and
redirected into a favorable direction prompting everyone to do some flying.
This was about 12:30.
We were to fly a new event which I instigated for our annual meet, R.O.W.
any model. We were to fence around a picnic table (forest preserve) with
1x1's and unroll some of Gerry Dubaka's plastic and fill it with water. As
it was though there were many puddles around to pick from. I was going to
fly one if my .020 Replicas my Playboy with a half size set of floats I used
very successfully at the 1955 Nats. It was on an Oliver.15 powered Meteor.
Unfortunately I chose the wrong Cox .020 engine and did no R.O.W. testing.
Ed Konefess always prepared and tested put floats on his "Convertible"
rubber job and made a beautiful flight. Our mentor 91yo Don Lockwood had a
1930's twin tractor, adding styrofoam floats. He held a World Record with it
in 1935 but not R.O.W. He made a short flight with his smaller speed event
props on it to see if it would work. It worked good. A couple of guys tried
Embrio rubber jobs with styrofoam floats. One made it and one did not. 30

Compass Variation
=================

Roger:
I am inclined to agree with those that recommend using a good magnetic
compass along with their GPS tracking unit. But it is vital that the
compass and the GPS tracker are set to the same number of degrees
variation. For the manner in which we are using them, it is only
necessary that they be set the same. Here in Southern California the
compass variation is 9=BA west. This would be important if we were
navigating using a topo map.
For many years, as a leader member of the Sierra Club, I climbed
mountain peaks here in California. Over 500. On many I used a compass,
altimeter and topo map. My compass is a Ranger made by Silva. It is
extremely accurate and durable. It is also very easy to change the
degrees of variation when I happened to be on a hike in Europe.
