4/7/2013 - Civil Air Patrol Cadets Camp out at AMPS Silver Field
A group of cadets from the Civil Air Patrol Tamiami Squadron spent the weekend at AMPS Silver Field. They arrived Friday afternoon and left Sunday morning. They set up their tents in the old parking area and used our main shelter as base of operations. During the weekend the cadets conducted search and rescue exercises on the tall grass west of the field. They also intended to conduct some flying experiments but the high winds were not conducive to it. They all had a great time and we hope to see them again soon.                                                                     Photos                                   Appreciation Letter

A reminder from the Board of Directors - Guest pilots at the field
Guest fliers must be pre-registered in order to fly a our field. If you want to bring a guest pilot to the field, you must contact one of the board members (Vicar, Butch, Chris or Mauricio) and make sure that your guest is registered. Failure to do so will result in a field rules violation and could jeopardize your membership. As always, your guest MUST be AMA member and you MUST be present while they are flying.

Special message from the Board of Directors - Courtesy to field workers
There will be no flying of model aircraft while the runways are being mowed. When you see the mower on the runway, all flying is to stop. The person doing the mowing should not have to ask any pilot to stop flying in order to mow. The mowing personnel has been instructed to fill out grievance forms against any person who does not cooperate.
