5/15/05 - Chatfield Reservoir RC Field - Due to 2 RC airplane accidents in the past week at the new camp ground area immediately west of the RC field, the Jefco club might restrict all fixed wing flying to the north/south runway. I have not heard the official rule changes yet. Helicopter pilots will probably be able to continue using the east/west runway area for flying, but I seriously recommend NOT flying west of the end of the east/west runway. The Jefco club will likely prohibit all flying west of the east/west runway, which includes helicopter flying. In the interest of safety, please make sure that you know the approved flying areas and any rule changes before you fly at Chatfield! Stay tuned for more information.
4/13/05 - The club membership voted to hold summer monthly meetings (May through October) at Chatfield Reservoir RC Field. Monthly meetings (November through April) will be held at the Ralph Schomp Mini Cooper Dealership.

12/5/04 - I just wanted to remind everyone that Action Hobbies carries a huge selection of Raptor and other helicopter parts, kits and accessories. Glenn is a huge supporter of our club, and he is one of the nicest guys in the business. Also, if you haven't stopped in lately, you'll find that many of his prices are actually LESS THAN MAIL ORDER! So the next time you need a few parts (or a lot of parts!), remember Action RC Aircraft!
