The Ozark Mountain Barnstormers RC club held their annual Fall picnic and fly-in last weekend. There was a good turn out of people and a variety of planes to watch. The radio control airplane flying club holds various events every year and visitors are welcome.
The best time to see someone flying is weekends and evenings. The club is located on Cheyenne Road between Ozark and Nixa. Members are from Ozark, Nixa, Springfield, and surrounding communities.
Betty, I've driven by them so many times over the years and always thought it would be fun to watch, but never have. Did you fly a plane?
Betty, my husband belongs to the Springfield R/C Club. I was a member and last years Secretary for the club and my husband was the President last year as well. I just didn't fly enough to make it worth my while as we needed the room for my husbands planes in the truck. I just wrote an article about it but haven't published it yet as I need to post some pictures of planes my husband has built with it. I still fly on the simulator at home. I enjoy going and talking to the guys. I didn't realize that John flies. What's his favorite plane? It's a great hobby. Enjoy!
