Mile Square S&T Scale in the 80's

Just a few photos from Mile Square on a day when Walt Moony was there to fly and advise. The photo below shows the 'old perfesser' checking it out.

A few other photos are thumbnailed below in the table. Usual deal, select them to see a larger version. Note John Oldenkamp in the flight line picture. For my money the world's best model aircraft photographer.

Mile Square was hanging on by a thread. The money to be made by turning it in to a golf course was just too attractive to a bankrupt Orange County.

Now closed to modelers and others, another flying site can only come about with the avaricious minstrations of lawyers and the glacial pace of the justice system.
