This weekend is the big open house and airshow at the Santa Clara County Model Aircraft Skypark. The Skypark is the home of the Tomcats. The Tomcats are one of the largest and best run clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area. Each year they put on a tremendous open house. It's one of the best organized shows you'll see anywhere and a model for how to put on a fast paced spectator friendly event.
The flying is divided in groups from soaring to Jets with no down time between acts and an announcer that does a great job of explaining the event to spectators who may not have a modeling background. I spoke with Mike Luvara the Tomcats President yesterday and he told me they will have live television coverage Friday morning to advertise their event which will run both Saturday and Sunday.
Here's a map to help you find the event just click on "view larger map" to go to a page that will allow you to enter your home address and receive directions to the field;

Looking forward to having you Lawrence!
