If your into remote control models and either have a RC or have a fantasy wish list show what you have.

Mine is a wish list SR71 Black bird with twin jet engines, and of course mine would have a modified camera bay.

Check out this flight, it's awesome!

POI Coordinates would be great for flying fields and clubs

RC Airplane Clubs POI Listing?...

I myself have a Piper J-3 Cub 40 PNP I fly (extremely occasionally as time is at a premium) out at 'Alberta's Littlest Airport' between Bawlf and O'Haton Alberta.

It would be nice to be able to take my Cub on our family summer road holiday - knowing where I could take it for a spin (tail-spin that is - and crash! - I'm not very good!)

Would anyone consider starting such a POI file?

Would there be a call for it?

Isn't that the retired SST, I had seen one at the Tuscon airplane museum.

I don't fly models but there is a field near me

BobDee,

There is one near where I live. Maybe you want to discuss the format for column four for csv, or other fields if you want to do gpx. Elevation is important to flyers, I assume including model flying, so perhaps something like the following for csv:

-102.83180,44.10793, Janice Jensen Field, Elev 2962ft New Underwood SD
