Edmonton Radio Control Soaring Society
WELCOME
http://ca.groups.yahoo.com/group/Edm...guid=467129590 Giving a shot at birthing a second soaring club in Alberta. I have been gliding and slope flying in the city all summer, I need some company(and some instruction). If you like the idea of being part of a club dedicated to silent flight then join up. I would like to join with people in developing a club in the Edmonton area. What do you think?

Re: Edmonton Radio Control Soaring Society
Hi pipercub, I have been flying the local slope sites in the city and a few of the larger parks with a small glider and mini high start. Where do you go to fly? Any local slope sites?
Sign up on the yahoo page if you get the time.

Re: Edmonton Radio Control Soaring Society
The bowl on top of Kaw ridge works for most wind directions, and lots of Goats.
Hammel works but really rough shale. -Dale- 100% free webcam site! | Awesome chicks and it is absolutely free! | Watch free live sex cam - easy as 1-2-3 |

Re: Edmonton Radio Control Soaring Society
Soft Batteries? You should be good for an 8hr Diamond pin flight up there! As a mater of fact I think I will go there for my 2 - 8Hr flights verse Quapelle Valley in Sask.
