 Base Access Badges (DBID Cards) |
I was informed on 12-29-2011 that the new computers at the Lakehurst Welcome Center (LWC) are up and running. As it stands right now we can only get our DBID badges at the LWC on weekdays between 07:00 to 15:00 hours. After January 1, 2012 you will not get onto the base without a DBID badge. If you have a military ID or CAC card you do not need a DBID badge. Our DBID badges expire on April 1, 2012. I will ask the Lakehurst Welcome Center to open on a Saturday during March. Stay tuned to the exact date.

| Welcome to the ECIM Club Web Site |
Welcome to the ECIM club website. Our goal is to have a central place to quickly disseminate information to everyone . As the club has grown, so have the administrative duties. We have 164 members and contacting everyone in a timely manner has become quite a chore. The site will host information for new members as well as schedules, photos and contest information.

| 2011 AMA Indoor Free Flight NATS |
I just looked at the results of the AMA Indoor FF NATS and found that 10 of our club members attended the NATS. Also, at least one of our club members participated in 20 out of 33 total categories. Our club members achieved 10 1st places, 8 second places, 5 third places, 6 fourth places and 7 5th places. Please take a look at the results on the AMA web site. I hope we get one of our competitors to write a short summary of the NATS so we can place it on our web site. I have a printout of the results and will post it on our locker in Hangar 1. Congratulations to all winners!

| ECIM: What We Do |
ECIM provides access to historic Lakehurst Hangar 1 every weekend throughout the year for free flight and slow fly rc enthusiasts. As far as we know, ECIM is the oldest operating model aircraft club in the nation. We have been flying in the Hangar for over 80 years! We host sanctioned free flight record trials throughout the year, and our members regularly set national records, competing on a world class level.
 Hangar 1 provides one of the largest indoor spaces on the planet. Its interior dimensions are: 800' long X 250' wide with a 180' ceiling. The Hangar was originally constructed during the heyday of Zeppelin development and is most famous for housing the Hindenburg between its trans-atlantic flights. Hangar 1 is part of the Navy Lakehurst Air Engineering Facility, which provides the US Navy with developmental support. Today it is part of the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JB-MDL).
ECIM maintains a close relationship with the base and is considered part of Hangar 1's history.
ECIM is a chartered club (#414) with the Academy of Model Aeronautics.
