The Clearview Field near Wichita KS is pleased to announce The 4th Annual Mickey Sullivan Memorial Aero-Tow. The Dates for this Aero-Tow are August 22nd thru 25th 2013. The field is located about 35 miles SW of Wichita and it has a 750 ft x 150 ft mowed grass runway. I have attached a wide angle view of the field. The owner, Ken Stitt visited the JR Aerotow a few summers ago and decided he needed to have gliders flying at his field and asked if I would help schedule an Aerotow for him. He holds several large events at his field each year and has just a tremendous set up for a big event.

I currently have Jim Frickey and Tim Gastinger signed up to help with towing and would welcome any one else who would like to volunteer to bring a tow plane. Jim and Tim can tow pretty much anything you might bring to fly.

The facilites available are a large air conditioned club house, a large secure storage area where your gliders could be left assembled for the entire weekend, and a play area for kids if you bring them. There are also a limited number of camper Hook-ups available on a first come basis.

The entry fee for the Event is $45.00 for all four days and will include a Very Nice Meal on Saturday Night. Food provided on site daily for $5.00/meal. We have on-line registration available RCAerotowing Site under the events section. You can also email your entry to pmccleave@cox.net and can then pay when you arrive at the site.

Ken Stitt and his wife Kim are truly gracious hosts and would love to see a great turn-out. Here is a link to the Clearview Field Website. http://www.clearviewfield.com/

Last year we had a good turnout and all those that attended said they had a great time and asked for us to do it all again. This year's event looks to be even bigger and better. I hope you all can attend.

You are welcome to ship models in to the event and we will be happy to help with getting them shipped back out after the event. Email me directly to arrange for this.

Thank you,

Pat McCleave

Hello,

Below are few photos I like to share from the past weekend - Juchen-Wey, Germany (June 15-16, 2013); an Aerotow put on by HKM Modellbau (http://www.hkm-modellbau.de/).

I heard that Friday afternoon was great, Saturday flying was a bit tricky with winds gusting beyond 32 km/hr with some rain; however, Sunday was a dream and worth waiting for. If I'm not mistaken 52 pilots registered for the event and proved sufficient excitement for all.

The beer (almost flowing), water and pop drinks were readily available and so was BBQ (steaks and bratwursts) with bread, salad and deserts. Saturday night the music and entertainment continued well into the later hours...

Enjoy,
Martin
