RIVA models airport home

* Why, how and what...

The idea of our own company airport struck us when one of our foreign clients came to visit our new premises. The area surrounding the new company workshops offers perfect conditions for this intention. And the thought of providing our clients with testing their models in action right here was just too tempting... Only now when we have already started to fulfill our intentions it is clear that some things are more complicated than they seem to be at first...

We want to show you what we did, what we needed and how it is all developing...

Until the time that our flying area is ready for its first guests, we would like to prepare another small surprise. It should be a service centre that would enable you to test your pilot abilities on our flight simulator, measure the quality of your power unit, test your own or our models with an on-board altimeter, test or format the akku...

Till we manage to do all that, have a look at the following pictures.

 


... models like these not only take off from our airfield but also safely land

Just to make sure in September we added extra 500 square meters to the already existing area


The pilots of our models from remote parts of the world also like to stop


by for a chat and a couple of flights.



Since the spring, our airport has been tested not only by young Jurko Kralovic from a nearby town of Nitra,

but also by one of the oldest Slovak electropilot, Mr. Eugen Kriska of Brezno.










First stage - 12 grs of grass seeds
for every square meter

... which is approx. 20,3 million seeds
for the whole airport area


...a heap of the special grass seeds...

...a big relief after managing one half of the area...


...precious hand utensils...

...neverending hard work...


Then a deep tillage followed...

...and a special technique...


Our friend Svein from Norway tested the air...

...and the temporary landing area...

Wish us luck !!!
