The program for December was Ron Fritz. He brought several rubber and gas powered vintage free flight models. Some of the rules for flying these models were explained, such as maximum engine run for gas models and minimum flight time for max points. Also discussed were the ways to limit engine run time, and how the airplane was brought down after a max flight.
