Title: Flight Instruction Wednesday July 17th is a GO, because Frank Said SO
Post by: bweaver on July 16, 2019, 08:21:56 AM
 :-\  Will have to see some improvement in the forecast before making a determination.

Think positively...  and repeat; "Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day than Wednesday".

Maybe the "nice" weather that starts at 8pm will shift up a bit.

If training is a go, I will definitely be there.
Right now showing 40-60% showers for that time.

You guys are all wrong.  A POP of 60% means that the probability of having a coffee at Tim's Woodbine is 60%.  The probability of flying is 40%.  That's a win either way. ;D

I am heading up no matter what.*

Well if Frank is going to be there, it is a GO!

Thanks to everyone for your positive thoughts in bringing about better weather.

Bruce,

You are still in charge of the weather. 
I must say you have done a great job the past few weeks.  Sunshine and no snow.  I set my weather standards very low so I am seldom disappointed. What more can a guy ask for? ;D

Just a heads up.  No guarantee with the weather, but it does look 'more promising' than 'not'.

See you there, regardless.

Any tales of lightning strikes on an RC plane?

What a great evening.  No snow.   Gray said that there was not a single drop that fell on the field all day while EMS in Toronto had to do 17 water rescues.  Go figure.

Here are the photos.

27-  Graham and Richard deciding who is going to talk next.
28- BJ saluting as an executive member of the Floppy Hat Society.
29- Bruce getting another lesson from Mark.
30- Temac's 3 Amigos
31- Richard maidened his new flaps... with the Carbon Cub attached.  It flew well.
32- Richard and his Cub
33- Bruce awarding David his wings.
36- David and Gray
37- Bruce getting another flying lesson.
38- Three more Temac Amigos.
39- Graham looking for the pilot of Richard's new plane.
40- Somehow I think this plane is flying where it shouldn't be.  Panicked expressions.
41- Mark and Richard.  Note the Divine Intervention backlighting.
