I will be at the field this Sunday (if it is not pouring, 70% prob.).

Mission:
- give Eric Lee (new member) a check flight.
- try out Joseph Suskind's (also new member) new Apprentice. 
- maiden the Guillow's B-25 twin, 31.5" span  (https://temac.ca/smf/index.php?topic=7745.0)
- first flight of the Guillow's Arrow at Rogo Field.  It did fly New Year's Day in a Loblaw's parking lot. (https://temac.ca/smf/index.php?topic=7406.0)
- try again with the Hammer bullet. (44" span hand-launch with an 800 watt racing motor).

Let's hope for a dry day.

OOOHHHH!  The rain in the 7 day forecast has just moved from Sunday to Monday.
That must be BJ working his magic.   ;D
Keep up the good work.

Ended up to be a great day...then Andy showed up at 12:30.   ;)

Photo report-

76- New member Joseph Suskin and his brand new Apprentice just before the maiden flight.
77- Graham helping me out....then he chickened out.  8)
78- Joseph and his new hat with the hair attached.  He could be bald.... not!
79- Mark Satin slowly coming back to life after 6 months of family issues.  Yes, he managed to smile all morning.
81- My Guillow's B-25 before the maiden fright flight.
82- Andy focussed on photography.
83- ..if the nose turret guns only could......  dream on Frank.
86- ..someone tell Andy the wing goes on the other way.  This is not a VERTOL.  Notice all the wiring- corporate samples from his days at Ontario Hydro.
87- Q: "Michael, where would you like your coffee?"  A: "Right here!"
88- eventually Graham found his smiler.
90- a new guy at the field.
91- Andy still can't figure it out.   Note the background:  Michael just realized Andy was at the field.  "Michael, life's not that bad....don't drive that spike through your forehead"
92- new member Paul Scuse with his back-up trainer.
93- Michael's air force.
