WARNING!


!!! SCAM Warning !!!

An email is floating around from what appears to be KC. This email is asking for Apple Gift cards for the meeting tomorrow night. This is what we refer to as "social engineering"; someone has spent a little time looking into who/what we are and pretending to be KC.

PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THIS TYPE OF SCAM!

The telltale signs are: a) someone asking for money via gift cards, b) the email it was sent from is not in agreement with the email I know KC uses, c) it came to me via the "webmaster" email alias. All of these are flags. When you receive suspicious emails or texts like this, it's best to reach out independently (don't use any links in the email) to verify that the person is in fact making the request.
Replying to the scam email will provide the scammer with your email adress also.

This is the time of year when these types of scams seem to be prevalent so please keep your eyes open and don't respond if you get any messages like this. Just delete them. Happy Holidays!

Attention All:

The Gate Combo will be changed on Saturday Feb. 15th for the 2025 year. The new gate combo will be be dispersed to 2025 paid members prior to the change. I suggest you write down the new combo when you receive it so that you will not lose it and have it with you when you go to the field. I write it on the back of my AMA/Club Card as that is needed if flying to post on the KIOSK at the field. Only those who:
1. Are current AMA members
2. Have paid their club dues and
3. Have turned in a completed signed membership form for 2025 will be receiving this new combo.
To ensure you do not get locked out and miss flying time please complete your 2025 renewal as soon as possible and get the signed form info to the address on the form. Please do not share with others as they may not be paid up yet. P.S. If you joined after Sept. 30th of 2024 you are good for 2025 also.

Learn to Fly - Free!

Free RC Flying Lessons

     The Introductory Pilot Program is free to the trainee. It gives the beginning pilot an opportunity to learn how to fly using a club-supplied airplane and transmitter.
     The instructor's transmitter has full control of the aircraft but at any time, with the flip of a switch, allows the trainee to pilot the airplane with a second transmitter.
     It's a great way to learn about model airplanes while getting hands-on flying experience.
     For more information, contact the Head Flight Instructor.
