2024 CLUB PICNIC IN THE BOOKS.....A FANTASTIC TIME WITH NEIGHBORS, MEMBERS AND FAMILY

July 8, 2024 - 9:24am — Hinckley Bill

To all Kishwaukee RC Flyers...

Well I had my doubts when we rescheduled our Annual Club Picnic to September....simply to many unknowns when it comes to the weather this time of year.

But I'll have to admit...TODAY WAS JUST PHENOMENAL! This is the type of weather we usually have in July and August folks....warm to hot, with winds that were manageable and sunshine/shade throughout the event.

We had forty four (44) folks attend the picnic, including members of the Nelson Family, our neighbors, and loads of members with planes to fly and their family members as well.

If/when you are flying at Nelson Field, you will not require individual RFID devices in your aircraft for identifying them while in the air to the FAA

This is a huge win for us, as otherwise there would have been no small amount of cost to comply with the FAA RFID rule shown below:
