Hello June<\/strong>. As I am writing this, the future is more uncertain than I have ever experienced! As I have previously noted, I am writing this nearly two months ahead of publication. For this month it is the evening of March 31 and the only thing on TV news is corona-virus, and the most depressing is the experts don\u2019t think that this will peak for another few weeks. I pray that by the time you are reading this, things will be returning to normal\u2014if they can ever be normal again.<\/p>\n

This month<\/strong>, I only received one submission, therefore, I will share more pictures. This was submitted by Kevin L. Cox Sr. of the Phantom Flyers RC Club in Saint Charles, Missouri.<\/p>\n

September 28-29, 2019, was the club\u2019s 62nd annual Pattern Contest. The members and their spouses go out of their way to make the visitors feel as though they are part of the club!<\/p>\n

As the club\u2019s editor\/photographer I try to capture the energy of the event. As an RC pilot, I have a lot of respect for the effort and long practice sessions that take place for each of the contestants throughout the season to stay competitive.<\/p>\n

Because of<\/strong> the corona-virus pandemic, I expect submissions to be nonexistent because of canceled events. Therefore, I am making the following request. Send me a short write-up and a few pictures from one of your club\u2019s events from last year. Heck, it doesn\u2019t even need to be a club event! It could be a short write-up about your club and pictures from the flying and camaraderie during a weekend gathering.<\/p>\n

Remember, to see your club in the magazine, simply send me a submission by email to amadistrictVI@modelaircraft.org<\/a> with the word “magazine” in the subject line.<\/p>\n

To this point, I have put every submission received into the magazine. I promise to continue doing that even if I am drowning in submissions!<\/p>\n

I will end by asking you to introduce someone to model aviation, whether it is on a buddy box or on your simulator!<\/p>\n
