Flying Sunday?

Papa · July 24, 2010, 08:02:10 PM

I'm going Sunday, 25th, after Lunch. Plan to be there about 1:00pm. Who's going to be there. You're missing all the good flying weather. This year don't let it be said the only flying you did was at the Fun Fly. Robert I want to see the Mew Gull all prettied up and flying with Frank's GEE BEE Y. Colin where's the CL-125??

I hope to be there. I hope it is a little less wet.

Actually, I'll stop by the Toronto R/C Heli Club (right at McCowan and Elgin Mills) to watch their Fun Fly!

OK Sergio, so you wimped out. Glenn, Gordon and me flew until 4:30pm. Very windy, 20Kmh with 35Kmh gusts. Interesting flying and even more interesting landing. Good day, good company, good flying what more could we ask for.

Aha! I didn't wimp out, I got there about 5:30ish and flew till dusk

The Heli Fun Fly was really nice so I stayed there most of the day.

Somewhere under the baby's crib.

But seriously ... since our daughter was born (14 days ago today) I've barely been able to get enough sleep much less work on my planes. Having said that I hope to get all my unfinished planes (P-51 Mustang and the CL-215) at least ready for the next Funfly. [

] I've already got three planes to maiden (two really to REmaiden) so I'm really behind the game this year. [

yep! She's a cute one. Got her looks from her mom! [

I've been at the cottage for the past week. I'll try to get out flying at TEMAC this week.

BTW, had some sweeeeet float flying at the cottage. I only had my Cub on floats there, but I had a couple of opportunities for dead calm flying. Even though the plane was acting weird (not enough fin surface area I think, and my old motor was crapping out) I had some fantastic flights with endless touch and goes and close passes by the boat. Even the loons came over to see what the strange bird was.
