Field Rules

Permit Stipulations

1. The club will erect a flagpole, which will be utilized to indicate that the persons at the field are authorized members. The flag will be securely locked in the clubhouse and will be raised as soon as members come to the field. That way the neighbors will know that those persons using the field are not outlaws, but responsible club members

2.  We will keep NO TRESPASSING signs up at all times around the property.

3.  We will post a list of club members, which will be displayed in the window of the clubhouse so that people flying there can be verified as ERMA members.

4.  The gate will be locked and made secure when leaving to make sure that the combination is not left in the opening numbers.

5.  We as club members, will police the field when opportunity allows. In the event that there is a trespasser or some violation, we will file a complaint with the appropriate police agency and cooperate with any prosecution, which arisis.

6.  Engine noise is a great concern from the neighbors. We will not allow members to fly the few airplanes that are in our opinion obviously overly noisy or offensive, even though technically we are not subject to noise limitations because we are considered aircraft. We will comply with AMA guidelines and do our best to voluntarily comply with noise guidelines of the County, although we are in agreement that they do not apply to us.

7.  We will place a marker pole in the ditch area of the southeastern portion of the flying area to act as a visual reference for flyers. This will help flyers to stay within the eastern and southern boundary of the model Hobby Park flying area.

8.  Every flyer with the club will practice and re-qualify for short field approaches. This is necessary to keep from going to far east on low final approaches.

9.  We will try our best to keep the flying  toward the west end of the flying site whenever possible.

10.  Our Safety Officer will review the above issues at our club meetings and we will also review any alleged violations and take appropriate action, at each monthly meeting.

11.  As a neighborly gesture, we will not do any flying before 9:00 am for Gas and Glo models, 8:00 am for electrics

12.  All club members must also sign the logbook that is inside the clubhouse. It makes a very important document if problems ever arise.

13.  All club members will adhere to the above concessions to the best of his or her ability, as we want to be good neighbors and respect those around our Model Park.
