Title: Flying this Saturday June 29
Post by: Frank v B on June 28, 2019, 06:07:47 PM
If Bruce keeps the intermittent showers in the forecast at bay, I will be at the field from 10 am to about noon tomorrow (Saturday).
Drop by if you need help maidening a new plane, get a lesson or two or just need to get rid of some insults. ;)

Somewhat windy this afternoon, mostly from the north.

Perfect for jets!

I'm planning on being there from 2 pm for 2 or 3 hours.

Hey Michael, I'm not sure it was a "can I join" the club question. May have been....

But it also may have been a "can I join" the fun and fly tomorrow too.

In the afternoon, I flew with Glenn, Vadim, Gray and Carlos.

Glenn went to the Kingston funfly this morning, but being unhappy that he knew no-one there, he drove back to Toronto and met me at 2pm at TEMAC.

Gray was flying a small high-wing plane, and was doing very well, especially considering the relatively strong north wind.

Vadim did his best to beat the wind with his new V900. He flew fast and fantastic. Glenn flew his 8-cell (improved power) E-Flite 2-meter Trojan, and it flew in the wind with ease. I was thrilled to fly 4 jests with no problems, each making decent landings on the runway. Carlos was having fun flying over and over.
