Memphis Propbusters Helicopter Fly-In August 23-24 2014

[FireNWater]

Gentlemen,

The Memphis Propbusters will be holding their Second Annual helicopter fly-in at the club field in Arlington, TN on August 23-24, 2014. AMA card will be required. Landing fee is $20.
.
Our field features and all grass runway with eight flight stations, covered pavilions, and electrical power. Please see our club website for details about hotels and camping. There are a few RV parking spots on the ends of the field, but no hookups. Lots of grass for tent camping if you wish. We have installed many additional electrical outlets and greatly expanded our covered pit area from last year.
.
At this time we're not planning on any pro pilots, demo flights, contests, or raffles, just a casual get together for helicopter pilots of ALL skill levels.
.
As we did last year, I will be enforcing a 30 foot Safety Zone, as well as lateral protected airspace for each flight station. The only helicopter maneuvering allowed inside the Safety Zone is takeoff and landings.
.
Fortune Model Products will have his crew on site with a wide selection of the finest helicopter parts (and entire helos) to keep you flying in the unlikely event of a mishap.
.
I will be CD'ing this event, so if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to contact me thru PM.
.
We are really looking forward to hosting this event and can't wait to see you there!!

To enhance everyone's safety and comfort level during this event, we are going to be instituting several safety measures. These will be enforced by club management.
.
1) A 30 foot Zero Line will be established from the pilot flight stations. The only flight operations allowed inside the Zero Line will be takeoffs and landings.
.
2) Lines delineating the horizontal limits of the pilot�s flight box will be established. These lines will extend to the outer edge of the runway and will be "protected airspace" while you are operating your helicopter. All flying past the edge of the runway is unprotected.

a) Sharing of adjacent flight boxes is allowed with prior agreement of the pilots.

b) A pilot may utilize adjacent unused flight boxes, but must immediately cease once another pilot takes that flight box.

3) In the event of a crashed helicopter, all other helicopters must be landed before proceeding past the pilot�s fence to retrieve the model. Club management will provide signaling devices to alert other pilots of a mishap.
