Magazine's 11th Annual Fly-in To: Rotary motors in aircraft Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=001a11c20234d376910500fdda9d --001a11c20234d376910500fdda9d Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Friends, For the past three years we=E2=80=99ve been very fortunate to have our *CON= TACT! Magazine* annual fly-in hosted by the fine people at the Golden West Fly-in (Marysville California), who rolled out the red carpet for us. But each year the weather seemed to not want to cooperate. Last year we had a record-shattering heat wave, and the year before that we had 40 mph winds with low temps to match. Each of these weather-related issues kept people from showing up, so our numbers have been slowly declining while they should be rising exponentially. So in the last issue I made mention of a few places we were considering, one such place being French Valley Airport (F70), near Temecula California. Not long after that I received an email from the French Valley EAA chapter (Pietenpol builders!) offering their full assistance. Long story short, I paid them a visit and they voted to help us all they can. So with that, I=E2=80=99m pleased to announce that on Saturday September 27= , 2014, we=E2=80=99ll be hosting our *11th annual Alternative Engine and Experiment= al Aircraft Round-Up* at French Valley Airport. The event will have a soft start on Friday, Sept 26th, as we receive and welcome arrivals. On Saturday we=E2=80=99ll have a day of educational forums and lots of cool st= uff to see on the ramp. We=E2=80=99ll have a nice catered dinner that evening, and= the next day we=E2=80=99ll be there to help those who flew in to get home safel= y. None of the details are set in stone (except the date and the place) but we plan to have easy access from the parking lot to the forums for those who drive in, and plenty of ground support (including transportation to and from motels) for those who fly-in. The uncontrolled field has a beautifully paved 6000=E2=80=99 x 75=E2=80=99 lighted runway, lots of tiedown space, an= d even a few vacant hangars that can be rented by the day for those who wish to keep their planes inside overnight. Additionally, there=E2=80=99s a very nice re= staurant on the field. For more information, please visit our website: http://www.contactmagazine.com/roundup.html (still a work in progress) And if you=E2=80=99d like to display your plane, present an educational for= um, offer assistance or even display a product, please let me know as soon as possible. You can reach me best by email: Editor@ContactMagazine.com or by my calling office phone number during normal business hours: 559-584-3306 We hope to see you there!
