From the desk of Gerry Dupont, Bristol County Radio Control Club Safety Officer,
Hello All,
After speaking with Dave and Judy Brownell about the absolute condition of our 10:00 AM weekday and 12:00pm weekend flying starting times, as originally stated in our club rules as a precedent set forth by Dave Brownell, let this email serve to remind EVERYONE in this club that these opening times are to firmly adhered to……..NO EXCEPTIONS! This includes all types of aircraft, fuel, gas, electric, gliders, rubber band, etc. (nothing allowed in the air) The reasoning for this is Dave and Judy Brownell allow people to walk onto their property, for sight-seeing, bird watching, or just peaceful contemplation starting from the early hours of the morning with the understanding that the R/C fliers take precedent after the established open flying hours. These “walk-ons” do not disturb the peace and privacy of the Brownell homestead as autos typically aren’t used to access the field by these people.
On that note, another item is the use of motorcycles onto the property. DON'T! Judy is dead set against it so keep this in mind. The last (but not least) item for your awareness is vehicle speed on the laneway from the barn to immediately past the Brownell home. Judy is very intent on having signs made up, essentially stating a 3 to 5 MPH Speed Limit in order to keep the road dust down on drive-thrus . It seems a good deal of it wafts its way into her home, onto furniture, into lungs and it’s not sitting very well with her at all.
With the club's adherence to these limitations and conditions, we can be reasonably assured of the continued use and enjoyment of the club field
for some time to come, all things being equal.
Respectfully,
Gerry Dupont
Club Safety Officer
