NELSON FIELD IS OPEN FOR THE 2024 FLYING SEASON...with a word of caution

To all Kishwaukee RC Flyers....

With the weather looking fantastic, and the winds today quickly drying out the ground, your Kishwaukee RC Flyers Club Officers have agreed that it's time to:

OPEN NELSON FIELD FOR THE 2024 FLYING SEASON!!!

We want to make sure that when the weather conditions are right everyone can get their flying season started without delay.

You are asked to watch the ground when you drive on it, and if it appears that you're making deep ruts, try and avoid any further egress and park back by the mower shed.

Last mowing of 2023 and picnic tables pulled in for the winter

Nelson Field was mowed Monday, October 30, 2023 which will be the last time it will be done for 2023.....with the cold, cold temperatures forecast any further grass growth will be very limited.

All three (3) wood picnic tables were moved into the shed for the winter. The one plastic top picnic table is still out for use and will be there throughout the fall/winter. There are two (2) six foot folding tables in the main shed that are available for use if needed....but if you do take them out please make sure to put them back in the shed after you're done with them.

NELSON FIELD IS NOW FAA FRIA APPROVED

We have received notification from the FAA that Nelson Field, our home field, is now FAA FRIA APPROVED!!!!!

What does this mean....?

If/when you are flying at Nelson Field, you will not require individual RFID devices in your aircraft for identifying them while in the air to the FAA

This is a huge win for us, as otherwise there would have been no small amount of cost to comply with the FAA RFID rule shown below:
