What is the M.A.R.K.S. Club?
| M.A.R.K.S. stands for Miniature Aircraft Radio Kontrol Society (AMA Charter 133) - Behind this name there is an active RC Model club that is located in the San Bernardino - Redlands - Highland area in Southern California. Currently we have one main flying field but also some additional places where we fly our models, ranging from electric slow fliers, scale and IMAC planes, pylon racers, over helicopters and 3D planes to turbine powered jets. |

6/25/09 - The two winners of the Model of the Month Award A bit behind schedule, here are the two winners of last meeting's Model of the Month Contest: Steven Lumpkin with a foam pusher jet (left) and Sanford with a ducted fan foam jet (Right). Both planes got the same number of votes. That hasn't happened for a long time. Congratulations to both! |

Runway is Kleen! Let's all put our hands together for Rick Inlow our Greenspot Field Director. For the last two days he has again been very busy at the field, removing weeds and stuff that does not belong there, and not to forget using the blower to clean the runway from sand and little pebbles. Great Job - Thanks a lot Rick. For those who are interested in a "visual" here is a link to some current pictures. |

New airplane restraints! Oscar Furlong finished the first set of big model airplane restraints this Monday; you can check them out at the field or on this picture This is a great addition to our field and will make starting and handling bigger models much easier and safer. - Thanks a lot Oscar for building these it is much appreciated! A big thanks goes also to Rick Inlow who cuts the weeds and blows off the sand and small rocks from our runway more often then one would think. - Thanks a lot Rick, you are a great Field Director! |

Pylon Racing: 2009
|
The first of the season will be held at our Greenspot The weather forecast for Sunday (race day) is currently not perfect and we will decide on Friday if we will hold the race or not. With our new runway up and running there are no more excuses to not hold pylon races at our field. Therefore dust of your old racers, build a new or a spare one and get ready for the 2009 pylon race season. If you have any questions in this context please contact Joe, our Event Coordinator events@rcmarks.org; he get tell you all the details, such as, where to get the race planes, how the races are run, and many things more. |
