After reading an artical in NBRC on portable fying, it got me thinking I would like to try it.I should have about 12 squeekers in late nov. to start a kit with. That would let me be able to wait till march to build my 4 kit boxes at home and take my time. maybe I could get some other people interested in the sport that other wise would never see a kit fly. And posibably get enough interested for a club around my area, and new members for the NBRC.Any other articles or more info out there you know of? let me know!Thanks

I have been thinking along those same lines. I have given some thought to flying a portable kit for exhibition purposes. The park on Saturday, parking lot of a football game on Friday. Pick a schoolyard. Walmart anytime. the possibilites are endless.

Hey Tapp,
You're a bigger man than I am!! LOL!!
I'd be scared to death of losing my birds man. I admire anyone who does this. :-) I've seen articles as well. This would make a nice "Show and Tell" for our kid's school projects also! Kids would love it!
I wonder would a kit of birds flown from a portable loft develop better homing instincts than birds that don't?
Hey Tapp if you try it let me know how it works out.
Good luck!----------
See you in the roll!

I'm going to chicken out on flying portable. I'd hate to lose my kit to an overfly when I'm just starting out. I have an excelent place to fly at home with minimal hawk attacks. I want to fly comp so I'd better not be messing around with the birds I have. Maybe in a year or two I'll collect a team of misfits and fly them portable. When I do, I'll let you know how it goes. "The Portable Flying Misfits"! Sounds like a circus act don't it? So guys, call me chicken----!!!!!!
