| When you first go to the park, it pays to spend
some time watching other flyers. In addition to observing excellent
flying, you can see how they handle takeoffs and landings and learn
where the wind plays tricks. Don't be afraid to ask for advice:
most flyers are glad to help.
As is true with other parks, weekends get busy. Parking is a competitive
sport then and the flight line gets crowded.
To get to RSA from I-280, north or south, take the Foothill Boulevard
exit and go south on Foothill Boulevard approximately 0.2-mile to
Cristo Rey Drive. Turn right on Cristo Rey Drive, continue for about
1 mile to the traffic circle and turn left into the County Park
entrance. Look for guys flying airplanes.
