One member's flying field

From Greg McKnight. I've attached a picture of my local flying field about 15 minutes from our house in Banff. We moved out here in '93 and when I retired in '05 we decided to spend summer/fall back in Ontario and come back here for the winter to ski, and starting this year, to do a bit of flying when it isn't too cold. The "field" is actually Lake Minnewanka, which is 1-2 miles wide and 17 long so there's plenty of space without trees or corn fields to get in the way. The ice is a few feet thick with a nice soft layer of powder on top, and stays safe well into May. But it's going to be difficult to have to try to land on a strip again! So far the Wardens haven't bothered me. I'm sure an RC flyer in the Park is the last thing they'd expect to see. They can't see me from the road and an electric motor is conveniently quiet. As long as the cougars stay away everything will be fine. Look forward to seeing you again in the spring.
