ARTICLE VII - FIELD RULES: 

To the west of the white poles is a no fly zone.

1. All flyers shall carry active insurance against the possibility of personal injury and/or property damage, such as that provided by AMA membership. 

2. No more than three airplanes are to be in the air at one given time. 

3. Each member must have a Club frequency flag attached to the end of his/her transmitter or antenna. 

4. All transmitters are to be placed in the impound area immediately upon arrival at the field. The Club card must be placed on the impound rack when the transmitter is removed from the impound and removed when the transmitter is returned to the impound. DO NOT turn on your transmitter if there is another card placed upon your frequency. Make sure your transmitter is turned off when you place it back in the impound area. 

5. DO NOT take off or hand-launch your aircraft from the pit area 

6. For safety reasons, stand behind or in the general area of the barriers not in front or on the runway. 

7. DO NOT fly over the PIT or SPECTATOR areas at any time. 

8. Low fly-bys over the runway must be in the direction of take-off. 

9. Limit your engine run in the pit area, also there will be no starting of engines under the shed roof. This is due to the safety factor of carrying a running engine to the flight line. A table is provided for starting engines. 

10. DEAD STICK LANDINGS TAKE FIRST PRIORITY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

11. If you are not a competent R/C flyer, please ask for assistance. A novice pilot who disregards this rule endangers himself/herself as well as other flyers and spectators. 

12. This field is for the purpose of R/C flying aircraft only. Any member found in any activity not pertinent to flying model aircraft (i.e. hunting/fishing) shall be immediately terminated from the Club and banned from any future use of the field. 

13. For safety reasons there is NO SMOKING north of the parking lot poles. The Shed, pit area and pilot stations are NO SMOKING AREAS.
