Check out the new stuff in We now have some Satellite photos of our field. Here is our field on Rosamond Lakebed. This photo was taken in 1999. Please note the vehicle tracks going from Rosamond Blvd at the bottom of the photo to the flying site. This is the reason a single access point was established to limit damage to the lakebed surface. This is our only club insured field.

The Federal Aviation Administration's pending notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) on unmanned aviation has been postponed yet again,
this time to July, according to federal sources. AMA will in all
likelihood oppose any federal regulations on aeromodeling, even if
outside of AMA, a "community-based organization" that Congress has
protected from such restrictions in the February FAA Reauthorization
bill. Keep up to speed on this critical and complex subject by
following Rich Hanson's government relations blog.
