Fallbrook is off Campbell Avenue, between Saratoga Avenue and San Tomas Expressway. There is no charge for students, builders, flyers or observers.

I was not able to put up all the photos because my computer crashed and I lost some of the pictures. If you have any of the emails on covering the fuselage and wing with tissue, please forward them to me.
