     Prospective Float Flyers. If you are interested in building floats, their is an article on "Flying off Water" in the AMA District IX website on float flys at Standing Bear Lake and how to build Cunningham type light weight floats. This website is www.amadistrict-ix.org  and can also be located via the Metro Area R/C Flying website and then clicking on links.

Thanks.

Midwest Performance Flyers Float Plane Fun Flys are also enjoyed by the Omaha area R/C Flyers at Zorinski Lake on the South/West corner of Omaha.  Here is a Link to the Float Fly Page of the Midwest Performance Flyers.  E-Mail me for more information on the Float Plane activity in the area or go to the Metro Area Schedule for dates and times.

I publish Metro Area R/C Flying to make a central web site for all the area R/C clubs, not to replace individual club sites, but to tie all of them together and promote growth and interaction between clubs. The most important service of the web site is to post the Metro Area Schedule. The schedule lists all the events for all the clubs in one location so that R/C flyers can see what events are available in the area and plan ahead. I believe it will also help the area clubs to work out their schedules so that one clubs events, will not conflict, with another's. The next most important service is to provide a Map Page that has maps to all the events, meetings, dinners and parties. Right after that comes the Newsletter Page which lists all of the different club newsletters. Reading other club newsletters lets members see what others are offering in the area that they are interested in and promotes interaction between clubs. Perhaps an even more important item is the New Flyers Page that gives new members information they need to join a club and become part of our R/C community. This is your web site, if you would like to show-off your newest plane, or share an experience, you can E-Mail pictures and articles to me. There’s an E-Mail Link on every page.
