Just when I took the skii's off the oldtimer, this happens.   At least I left my snow tires on.

Between the window and tracking receivers I have in transit from various points I'm beginning to twitch.

Yea we got sun burns and there was this ball of fire in the sky. I think they called it "summer"

I also wonder why package tracking can't be more like when NORAD tracks Santa!  I want to see that dot MOVING!

Possibly the parts were turned into some kind of missile defence weapon.

Actually Ed, what I ordered could be considered a weapon!!!

I had one leave the warehouse on the 4th and arrive at the front door on the 11th.

Don't know what you're doing wrong. LOL.

Must be that "weapon thing".

I think they are afraid of Jack.  They have heard of how he deals with the people he likes!

I'm thinking I might pull the 11-2 shift at the field.

I will try to be there in the morning and would like to try the Cougar again after did some modifications - if I someone will hand launch it for me as it is too wide to grab it in one hand.

if you wernt at TEMAC today I guess your not an addict!! 

You could see the addicts because they were the ones with the smiles on there faces and an armfull of planes as they marched from the car.  Some impressive flights including Ken's Decathalon,  Simon flew his new Harrier and I belive another couple new planes.  Greg flew an nice scale looking biplane that he handled very well.  Lots of Edf's, hot pylon models, balsa scale and aerobats, gliders ect ect it was great!

This is going to be a great summer! 

Its so nice to come into the season after keeping up the friendships over the winter with the meetings!

Yup! It was great today at TEMAC, maybe 15 people or so.

Often four planes in the air at the same time.

Simon C did the most amazing maiden/aerobatic flight of all time!  ;D

Thanks very much to Andy and Greg H for getting my downed plane out of the muddy field.
Repairs are underway.

Any Nooner maidens today?

I really wanted to come out and fly mine, but I had social plans...  :(

I maidened my Nooner again!  I've done about a dozen maidens on it so far.

Don't worry Mike, I didn't crash. It's still all heart!

It was a great Sunday. Ken decathlon was very nice in the sky. I still think ken is going to pull something throwing the sabre in the air. I am thinking today might be good to hit the field again.
