President’s
Column
Octobe r 2005 Pre side nt’s Column
Its Octobe r! What does that mean
to the Paloma r R/C Flyers? Well, first
it is a slow month. However we do
have an informal Cont rol Line fly-in
schedule d for Saturday, October 8 ,
2005. We also have an Ope n B C ombat event, (Raid on Bougainv ille),
schedule d for Octobe r 22 , 2005 . But
the most important event scheduled
for this month is the October 20,
2005 Club meeting! Why y ou might
ask? Because the October meeting is
primarily reserved for
Club Officer and Board
of Director nominations
for the upcoming election.
By now you should
have in mind people
you would like to nominate to he lp insure that
our club continues to
prosper. I personally
have several people in
mind to fill t he shoe s of
retiring Board Me mbers
and Officers. Oh sure ,
many of the se people have told me
“if nominated I will not run, if elected
I will not serve” but I am going t o
nominate a couple of them anyway
and just see what happens! Y ou
never know who will ste p up to the
plate whe n duty is thrust upon them!
We shall see .
In this issue y ou will find our projected initial budget for next year,
2006. This budget is only meant to
give the membe rship a n idea of how
the finances might look, given conservative rene wal figure s and expe nditure s. It is by no means intended
to hog-tie the next a dministration’s
spending. That said I would recommend t hat the next administ ration
continue t he “ne w field” search. In
doing so, the new boa rd and new
officers should plan to spe nd the
cash surplus wisely-only on a new
field! Yes, we st ill have Johnson
Field, thanks much t o the efforts of
Tom Mine gar. Yes, J ohnson Field
and Car Track could still use some
improvements. But we have promised the C ounty of San Diego t o refrain from doing any such improvements in exchange for an
exemption from a use permit. ( At this time that agreement still remains in effect!)
I would like to take the
time to thank all t hose that
worke d and participated in
the Club’s Septembe r 2005
Airshow and Swap Meet! It
was a big success! I would
particularly like to thank
Bob Lang for doing the
anouncing, Gary Thompson
for doing the organizing
and Curtis Kitteringham f or
arranging the food and organizing the swap meet. It was a
wonde rful time had by all who attended and we saw some great flying. As always, we use this show to
attract new membe rs, and we had
several join on the spot! Again my
congratulations to all!

final big yearly event,

EDITORS APPEAL
I Enjoy putting t his newsletter t ogether. Composing, f ormatting and
printing is a lot of fun. It takes a lot of
time but it’s my contribution to the
club and I realize that a lot of me mbers donate a lot of their time to
keeping this club alive. However
there is one facet of the newsletter
that is mind numbingly boring, time
consuming and aggravating as any
past editor will attest t o. That is the
folding, tabbing, addressing, andstamping of the finished product. It
takes about three hours for one person to do it. S oooooooo, I would
like t o appeal t o just three me mbers
that live in the Poway area t o join me
once a month at our shop t o he lp do
this not so plea sant task. It will take
about one hour or less and with the
conversation and discussion that
ensues that goes by in a flash. I’ll
provide soft drinks (or bee r) and a
friendly atmosphere . If anyone out
there is able and willing plea se Email me at
[email protected]
or call
858-486-6771
First Weedwackers will be running
three classe s also, but the re is a difference to be worked out with them
for compatibility. They are:
Quickee 500
Sportsman
1/12 scale warbirds ( House of
Balsa T6’s)
We are hoping that our Combat
2610 class can be made t o be compatible with their 1/12 scale warbird
class to enhance c ompetition. This
will be t he subject of some discussion and negotiation.
First Weedwacker’s sche dule for
the rest of this year is:

All debts are almost paid off so
we should start 2006 in good shape .
George proposed t hat we hold
several hundred dollars in re serve
to pay the future water bill, which so
far has not been claimed by any
water district, but no doubt, will pop
up soon.
The surplus funds should be earmarked for field developme nt eithe r
at the pre sent fie ld or some fut ure
one that we may have to acquire .
George ha s been informed t hat
there is a possibility that the property north of our fie ld may become
the site of Cal State Fallbrook. The
decision will supposedly be made
on November 3r d. That date will be
pivotal t o the future of our club.

Scale Notes
By Ron Peterka
GETTING AND KEEPING A S HINY
PL ASTIC CANOPY
Ron Pete rka
It seems like inevitability to
see small scratches show up on your
favorite model clear plastic canopy.
It just happe ns! But, there is a way
to prevent a lot of those scratches
and have a sparkling and shiny canopy.
The answer is S.C.J ohnson
Wax ‘Future’ clear acrylic polish sold
in the floor polishing section at the
super market .
Othe r acrylic floor
products may work a s well, but Future is proven.
Future is a clear, watery thin,
liquid acrylic that is designed to a dd
‘shine’ t o synthetic floor-coverings
that can’t be waxed a nd buffed like
older floor cove rings like linoleum.
When spread on the floor covering in
a thin coat, the liquid sets up in a
very short time and retains its shine
even in areas subject to heavy foot
traffic. So how does this fit in our
models?
Well, Future can be applied
by air brush or dipping. It can be
brushed, but can be a little difficult to
get a smooth thin coat. It can be
thinned with a little denature d alcohol, but be pre pared t o wait a little
longe r for it to harde n.
Clear pla stic part s like canopies should be thoroughly washed
with Windex or a water/ammonia
mixture. When dry, y ou airbrush the
canopy inside and out with Future.
Clamp the part at a corner, or onto a
scrap area that will be cut off later
and hang it to set up. If you dip the
part, let surplus liquid drain and
place the canopy on paper t owels to
dry.
The reason for cove ring inside and out is t hat the Future will
protect the inside of the canopy from
the ugly marking that you can get
when you attach the canopy with
cyanoacrylate (AC) glue . And,the
canopy should a ppear much ‘clearer’
than without t he coating.
The Future will se lf-level as it
sets and should give a great shine
that can be repa ired if it gets small
scratches. In t hat case you will remove the Future using Windex or
ammonia/water mix and rea pply the
Future.
Your canopy frame can be
painted onto the canopy over the
Future. Use a low tack viny l masking
tape to minimize a dhesive transfer to
the canopy surface.
This process should be exceptional with electric powered models whe re there is no nitro/methanol/
oil mix t o be concerned a bout . I
haven’t tried it on latex paint, but it
might be compatible for a nice shine
Page 7
on that normally dull surface. Test
first. Don’t try any new process on a
model t hat repre sents a lot of time,
energy, and money.
This liquid acrylic material is
one more useful tool for our e soteric
hobby. Try it .

Model of the Month
Model of the month was stumbled into this month by Charles
Lewis who got his dates for the club auction crossed and showed
up with several planes for sale. Since there were’nt any other entries
present for this month Charles was encouraged to enter a model
which then was voted “Model of the month”, unanimously, I might
add. Someone commented that this was the only way he could win
anyway. Just kidding Charles!!! Display that trophy proudly.
No camera was present to record the moment unfortunately.
