I sometimes fly there, but now lots of Parasailers, so could be a problem. Also last year the cops came as someone complained of the noise factor. I had a small glo engine at the time, but others were flying with larger gas engines. Also with me was an electric plane, so definitely not him. I think it could be the end unless you hit a day with absolutely no wind, and walk out really far from shore to fly, This way you might be able to do it. But bring a sled as the walking is difficult. I have a pair of snow rackets and that helps to stay on top of the snow.Also very important, don't stay too long as you can see by my picture what it will do to your teeth.

XSTAR,
if you go around,,, you'll find many place to fly in winter.
I am at time looking for sites that I will fly the LAMA
and found many places where no one are to say the noise is a issue.

Just fill up the car gas tank and drive,drive, drive,,, lol...

Are you still flying at the train station?
Nice place but to many traffic around now,,, if you like peace there is other nice place too!

Your choice...

If someone want to fly electric helicopters,,, many places are open for us...
It just take times to find the proper one... :D

Good Luck!

Yes i still fly there its builing up but the field is still just as big. I have a private place that i go to when im there for the whole day. I could also fly right beside my house in front of fast wheels theres a huge field... Im thinking of maybe joining the club but not sure yet.
