Weather permitting...yes. I'm about 1/2 hour from there. Hopefully a few others will join us.

About same for me drive wise. Any particular place we want to meet? Isn't there an abandoned runway there?

I just looked at Google Earth and saw the runway. Looks like there's a parking lot on the far end (see pic) that'll be a good spot to meet. I'll be in a Silver/Gray Jeep Grand Cherokee.

If you look just to the right and down you will see that abandoned neighborhood

That parking space is good but there is a playground and many families in that area. I have been entering the park from Bristol road using Newtown road. Once on Newtown, there is a parking lot on the left. Looking up a slight hill you will see several soccer fields that r empty this time of year. If occupied you can walk deeper into the park where there r relatively few people. See attached. I could make noon. I have a black Subaru Outback. Name is Mike. Thoughts?

Haven't used Litchi with my Mavic yet, used it on my P4. I imagine the best way-points to use would be the abandoned housing section. On another note, I was going to create an official Meet-Up group. I decided to wait until there is more interest from others. Don't want to waste the $10 monthly fee.

True and the abandoned runway would look awesome as well.

There is a souderton area UAV group that as been looking to expand so might want to check with them.

No problem...should be a nice place to fly. Hell, it was an airport at 1 time.

Rich Hudman · Dec 31, 2016

Is the whole runway still intact? That would make an awesome straightaway to fly!
