Flying Sunday April 24

At this point, the weather forecast is good for flying this Sunday at TEMAC.

I plan on going up early afternoon.

I will post updates Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Of course it's going to nice for flying.... It's the only day this weekend I can't go.

Oh well, hopefully the cold and windy weather we've been seeing is over now.

Has the parking area improved or is it still pretty muddy?

Michael · April 23, 2011, 07:46:00 AM

I haven't been there for a while.

I'll mention the parking conditions next time.

(The Toronto RC Club also only has parking on their stone covered area).

It's been pretty wet in the GTA for a while now.

No kidding, seems like the first even remotely decent day for flying in awhile!

Weather forecast for Sunday afternoon is 13 degrees and 10km winds from the west.

Decent, but we'll have to be a bit careful with the crosswind.

I hope to be there by 1pm.

I will come out... I have a few smaller planes I would like to try!

That was a great day at TEMAC!

Thanks Greg for the help in getting my jet to fly.

Waterbomber had 2 successful flights.

I had a great time (despite my Bronco crash).

Great weather, shame to see a couple of nice models go in. Both deep in the mud in the SE corner of the field.

I hope my DLG practice didn't get in the way too much, i tried to pick the lulls in activity and clear off when someone came out to fly something.

Flew one of my Toledo purchases - a 3DHS 41" Edge. Nice model that flies great. A steal at the show price - $125 with the Omega motor.

I don't think anyone noticed your glider flying.

Your Edge flying, however, was awesome!

Greg and Jeff's air combat sortie!!

Duelling gliders!

I got there at 10 am. The wind was around 5 km. I had a chance to fly the dr1 for three flights. Then took the sopwith out. I had the stinson sr10 there and flew around when michael arrived. I have over 400 pictures from yesterday and will try to upload them and link the images. Unfortunately there are some before and afters. For anyone that loves foam planes. You need to go to walmart and get a 2 stage glue gun. It will bond much better than epoxy or gws foam glue. We used it on michaels retracts and it held up great! What a fun day!

Andy. Where are the pictures!
