Bayview Airpark Update – May 6

We had to wait for 10 days, but the airfield has been freshly cut and rolled today. Please hold off from using the gate to the chickee as the grounds remain very wet and soft.

You might notice our new weather station button, it is all setup and reporting to weather underground. Our team is working on an a pole adapter and we’ll start getting real wind readings once it is mounted. We are also working on mounting the wifi extender.

Over a dozen pilots were enjoying the warmer weather today. As a reminder for the new season, be sure to perform a failsafe check by having a member hold your plane at half throttle, then shut off your transmitter. If the engine shuts down you are good to go. One of our members tested failsafe on a nitro plane and it went to full throttle. It was corrected before take off.

So be safe, and have fun flying your planes at Bayview Airpark!

Bayview Airpark Update…

With the opening of flying season, the volunteers at BRCM are working very hard to get back to having fun flying our planes safely.

  • Webcam and weather station

We had some water damage that caused our router at the clubhouse to fail. Bill Ayre performed his magic and fixed the corroded connector. Our weather station was also damaged and we will be replacing it. The webcam is working, but we have to sort out some changes with our ISP to get everything back online.

  • Field Maintenance

Our Field Manager Ken has filled the roller and he and Dwayne will be rolling Monday morning. He is also preparing the cutting schedule now that the sun has returned to our field.

Please be patient and support your BRCM volunteers!
