Hey everybody, greetings from the Canadian prairies! Bought my SC last October, once the snow clears up it will be time to assemble it again and hit the wide open Albertan skies! Any users here from around Alberta?

Hey PrairieSC. Welcome to the board. It's good to see another Canadian/Albertan. I live close to Brooks. Where are you from?

Greetings from the UK and welcome aboard.
I know just what you mean about snow. Down here in southern England, we had at least eight inches in February and it settled for a good three days. Talk about a White Hell! We were so relieved when it thawed and the country could get running again. Hope you're not suffering anything so severe, Prairie . . .
Happy flying!

Lol 8" for 3 days. I wish! Around here it's been about 5' for 6 months. This is a pic that I just took out my back window.

Well just past the house in the above pic is a nice paved road that I use for my runway. Seeing as wardlow has a population of 37 ppl there isn't very much traffic. Dinosaur park is another favorite spot. It has a large parking lot at the top and bottom of the coulee and some spectacular senery. And last but not least I fly at the Brooks RC Club track www.brooksrcclub.com. Living in deathbridge must be agonizing, with all the crazy wind and all. I have a brother that lives there, if I make it down to visit him I will give you a shout and we can set up a fly day.

Have you ever tried flying in Popson Park in Lethbridge, or the new Chinook High School? Those are two possible airfields I have been thinking of.

No I haven't flown in Lethbridge at all. I'm sure there are a few good places though. You ever thought about putting floats on and flying off Henderson lake?
