NDRCC Presentation at Settler’s Ridge Nursing Home, Celina, Texas On June 17, Charles Shafer and Woody Woods gave a RC presentation and indoor flying demo to approximately 50 residents at the Settler’s Ridge Nursing Home. It was interesting to learn that approximately 20 residents in attendance either flew military aircraft or help to build them at one of several major assembly plants in the DFW area during WW2.
The presentation was followed by a special “Father’s Day” lunch for all attendees and many questions about the RC hobby. Settler’s Ridge management ask us to consider hosting an outdoor flying demo for their residents at Eagle Field later this year.

Woody uses some body english to make a point about flight characteristics While Charles looks on.
Woody and Charles spoke to many residents who were ex military aviators or who worked in the aviation industry in Texas. |
