It's going to be hot, and possibly a bit windy.. but we are on for training tonight.

See you at 6!

It was hot, and the winds were tricky at the start of the evening but we had a lot of fun. Highlights included the first windsock landing by BJ and his Sensei and Larry earning his wings!!!

Larry celebrated his wings by promptly crashing his model, as is tradition. Congrats and well done!

Well done Larry!

On another note - @Andy Hoffer  we need you back.  Frank has missed you so much that he got a dog as a substitute for your friendship!

Oh my goodness! That poor dog!  I've got to talk to him (the dog) before the PTSD sets in.  The SPCA will be after us for sure!!  ;D

Lots of fun last night!
Congratulations Larry on earning your wings and positioning yourself up for a new plane.

BJ demonstrated an amazing skill to avoid damaging his Sensei on the windsock.
(Thank you Oscar for the 2nd photo.)

FANTASTIC, BJ!

This beats anything anyone has done in the annual Skills Challenge!  Superb precision flying at its best!! 

@Frank v B and Mike H (@thehaze) can only dream of such a masterful manoeuvre.

Bravo!

Andy
