Chapter Meetings this meeting so you will have to read them elsewhere. Someof us have been going to Pappa's Tavern after TOFFF forlunch and took the opportunity to make an inquiry for thisyear's Christmas Party.

July - August Chapter Meetings

by John Hlebcar

Welcome new member Bob Film and "guest" LorenSchmidt to the August meeting. At the August meeting Iannounced that I would be cutting back on the content ofthese meeting notes in an effort not to delay the productionof our newsletter, as has been the case in recent months.I see no sense in keeping your editor waiting for my inputas I try to pry it out of the background noise of my cassetterecorder while my computer is periodically locking up anddomestic scheduling keeps getting in the way. We all knowwhere to get SAMSPAN, Tee Shirts, Decals, and otherclub newsletters. We all know that Steve needs input tokeep the newsletter filled with your current or past projects.He can work with e-mail, printed, or typewritten material -

- no haildvvritten copy please. And don't fOiget U'H;;phGtc­graphs - both current and from the past. It's your newslet­ter - support it!

ANNOUNCEMENTSo Here's a look into your immediate contest future ...

4 Nov SAM 21 MECA Collecto - Campbell Com-munity Center, Campbell, CA4-5 Nov, SGMA Old Timer FF & RC Contest - WaegellField, Sacramento, CA11-12 Nov, Fall Free Flight Festival - Lost Hills, CA18-19 Nov, SAM 49 Fall Annual-Condor Field, Taft,o The date for the SAM 27 Christmas Party at Pappa'sTaverna has been set for Saturday, 2 December.

JUNIOR OLDTIMER REPORTTrevor Shiraishi is our second graduate from the JuniorOldtimer program and was awarded a $100 check at theJuly meeting. Congratulations Trevor! Ray McGowanbrought in a "Go Easy" kit donated by Jack White tobe passed on to the junior membership - Thanks Jack!

TOFFF GUY REPORTLoren Schmidt was "knighted" into the TOFFFers at thesession following the August meeting. The new parkingarrangement has worked out for the betterment of all. The1/2 A postal went well but was nothing spectacular. Edsent the scores in but did not have them for reporting at

OLD BUSINESSo SOS Contest - John Carlson. By the time you read this itwill all be over. John has sent a report to Steve under sepa­rate cover so look elsewhere in the newsletter.o Crash and Bash - Ed Hamler. Also water under the

bridge. If you attended you have Ed's report by now. If youdidn't, you missed a good one.o Rod Persons reported that the decals are here. They are60 cents each or three bucks for five.

NEW BUSINESSOur Honorary Member Rado Cizek from SAM 95 in the

Czech Republic sponsored an open postal rubber contest,which was to be flown any day in September. I have notheard if any local SAM 27 members took Dart. Perhaps wecan be notified a little earlier next time.

TECHNICAL PRESENTATIONSInadvertently chopped off the end of issue 215 were a fewmore hints and tips by George Benson. George also passedout copies of the Marin Aero Club Introductory Guideline toBuilding and Flying Model Airplanes. I passed a copy toSteve for Scrap Box items in the A/F.

We had no presenter for July but Rod Persons showed howhe and John Dammuler made rubber motor stuffing toolsfrom aluminum tubing and arrow shafts. He also opened upa discussion on braiding rubber motors. The method shownin chapter ten of book 1, "Rubber Powered Model Airplanes"by Don Ross is as good as any and basically covers whatRod presented.

Ed Hamler answered a request of mine from several yearspast to see if he could work his spreadsheet magic andconstruct a Table of Rules for all of the SAM RIC events onone sheet of paper. He finally worked one up and distribut­ed a handout at the August meeting. I think he did a greatjob and have passed a copy to Steve for inclusion in theAntique Flyer. Have your rulebook in hand when you look itover and I think you will like what you see, Address anyquestions or comments to Ed for future revisions.

The cost remains at $13.00 per person, which includesfood, tax, and gratuity. Meals include Salads (Greek FetaDressing), Rice Pilaf, Assorted Dinner Rolls and Butter.The club will pay for coffee - all other beverages are "nohost". We will have the usual White Elephant Raffle(Participation Optional) and the Regular Raffle of MostlyNon Modeling Items. Please contact John Hlebcar at(707) 252-8482 not later than Monday, November 20th tomake your reservation and menu choices.

September Meeting

TECHNICAL PRESENTATIONSBob May displayed almost every engine he ever boughtfrom when he started modeling and certainly every box theycame in whether he still had the engines or not. Veryimpressive collection and a story to go with each one!

da to fly in our 25th Anniversary Crash and Bash. Beforethey went back home they came out on the followingThursday, joined SAM 27 and flew to earn their TOFFFstatus. Welcome aboard gang!

TOFFF GUY REPORT

Well. .. pilot error on my fancy new recorder resulted in "ra­dio silence" when I tried to play back September's tape sowe are flying on memory using the agenda as a map ...

o Rod Persons received an offer to purchase one or twofree flight models from member Fred Emmert for the end ofyear raffle. One is a huge Anderson Pylon with Ohlsson 60included and the other is a Drobshoff Challenger includingan Otto Bernhardt OS 15. The Challenger was a secondplace winner at the SAM Champs at Taft.

The four Club Contests, the SOS Event, have now been runwith Dick Irwin taking the sweepstakes with a perfect scoreof 15 points (highest point total of any three enteredcontests) with his Lanzo Record Breaker. Larry Kramer'sPuss Moth came through for a 12 point second followed by

Skokie) and Andy Tickle (Korda DT) brought up the rear.John's Skokie had a brush problem which tamed his recordeven though he later did a 11 minute during the 4th contestbefore the problem returned. Andy handicapped himself byflying in only one contest. Dick's winner has a 342 sq. in.WA, powered by a 7.2 v Speed 400 with a 4:1 gear ratiodriving a 11 1/2 x 7 prop; battery is a 6-cell 600AE. Dick hadsevere fuselage damage in contest 1 but was back in actionby contest 2. Larry's Puss Moth is powered by a Speed400 with a 6:1 gear and 6-500mah cells. Park's effort wasthe most persistent; not satisfied with his Lanzo Cabin (300sq. in.) in contest 1, he decided to build a Record Holderafter Dick's winner. Same motor with 6-500AR cells, Parkmanaged to fold the wing with resultant total wipeout of theforward fuselage on his third flight. Andy's Korda DT has450 sq. in. with a Speed 280, 3:1 gear and 6-600mah cells;marginal power but eventually caught low level thermalsand hit two 15 min. maxes in contest 3, his only outing.John's Skokie is a 150% (200 sq. in.) powered by a Poten­sky 3, 4:1 gear and 5-500mah cells. Second flight of con­test 1 resulted in a hard landing necessitating repairs. Justbefore contest 2, he discovered that the speed controllerwas kaput. Contest 3 was not better for John in that themotor conked out after a few seconds. The trophy hard­ware was handed out at the October meeting. Congratula­tions to all the contestants.
