Located at the Tucson International Modelplex Park Association (TIMPA), we will be using Model Airplane complex this year (the Contest Range site from NARAM-57)! This features a paved area to fly from, covered work areas, and flush toilets! It is just south of the site where the previous meets have been held. Contestants should bring ample drinking water. There is a gas station full of snacks and drinks, including a Subway Restaurant, 13 minutes northeast of the launch site at the corner of Sandario Rd and Picture Rocks Rd. We plan to have someone pick up Subway sandwiches for lunch on Friday and Saturday.
