Hi Gary,
If you don't hear from Ralph, I will try to put all the info together by the end of the day. It's a bit confusing because we have different groups sponsoring separate days in an effort to get the daily cost down.


Here's the text from the Harbor Soaring club announcement, this will get you started.

Since you have been a participant in previous indoor fun flies at the Tustin
LTA hangar, we are offering you first opportunity to join Harbor Soaring Society at our next events, scheduled for Sunday 27 Nov and Thursday 29 Dec 2011.  The event will be the same as before, but the entry fee has
been reduced to $15.  Again, guaranteed participation goes to those who
pay in advance.  Pay at the door may be limited or non-existent if 40
person participant limit is reached.  Details below.
 
THE NEXT INDOOR FUN FLY AT THE TUSTIN DIRIGIBLE HANGER
 
SPONSORED BY:
HARBOR SOARING SOCIETY (HSS) ON SUNDAY 27 NOV,
AND THURSDAY DECEMBER 29, 2011
 
Harbor Soaring Society has the opportunity to access the giant dirigible
hanger in Tustin, and will sponsor model aircraft flying on Sunday Nov
27th, and again on Thursday Dec 29th, inside the hanger.  AMA members are invited to participate in the following aircraft types:
Indoor Free Flight Rubber Duration – Microfilm, penny planes, scale, and similar aircraft.
Indoor Glider – Hand launched, catapult, and similar.
R/C Electric Powered – Light (small) sport, 3-D, slow flyers, helicopters and similar.
 
Hangar is 1000’ long x 300’ wide x 150’ high.  700’ of the length will be
available for model aircraft.  Areas and times may be designated for
different aircraft types, depending on congestion.
 
Event Date:  Sunday Nov 27th, and Thursday Dec 29, 2011.  7 AM until about 4 PM.
           
Cost:  Charge for Sunday Nov 27 and Thursday Dec 29 is $15 per day per person
for any number of planes but will be collected in advance.  Anyone interested in participating should reply to Fred Hesse (HSS newsletter editor) at fhesse_at_socal.rr.com or 714-963-5838.  Each day is limited to 40 participants, so first come first served.  Please reply soon, as this event sold out last time.  Further details (maps and event rules) will be provided to those interested.
 
AMA membership is required.
 
Event Director (CD) for both days will be Henry Smith III ( henry.smith.3_at_earthlink.net ).  The CD will have final authority to decide if any particular
aircraft is suitable for this venue.  Aircraft over 16 oz are
discouraged unless they have very low flying speeds. 
 
Site Access:  Participants will meet at gate near intersection of Valencia
and Armstrong Ave. at 7 AM.  Gate will be locked at 7:15 AM after which
the group will caravan a short distance to the hangar.  Gate will be
open for 10 minutes at 9:00, 11:30 AM, and again at 12:30 and 2:30 PM.
However, everyone is encouraged to bring lunch so as to utilize flying
time.  Departure will be approximately 4 PM.  Carpooling is recommended.
 
There is no electricity or plumbing at this site. There is a port-a-potty
outside the hangar. Bring your own table and chair, power for charging,
and your own food & drinks.
 
Additional days are planned.  TBD days sponsored by Norm Furutani.  Contact him at norgin_at_earthlink.net for further information.  The Black Sheep Squadron is sponsoring two
days (Nov 26 and Dec 26) which are planned as one design contests as
well as RC and free flight fun fly.  Contact Dave Gee at 818-383-7651 or stukadave_at_cs.com for further details.
