It's aviation speak, just like Andy wrote.

Or it might mean freakin'

After a brief shower the conditions were perfect!

Lots of great flying by all tonight. Might have set a record for the most Apprentices in the air at the same time as well.

Can't wait until next week.

I got a bit if flying in before the rain, my best flight with my Hangar 9 Mustang which I trimmed out for this weekend's funfly.

Once the rain stopped I helped Andy, Rob and Don.
It was Andy's first time flying and he did great, thanks to time he had spent on a simulator. Rob did fine, taking off, flying and landing, and then doing even better with another instructor later. I flew 3 times with Don, and his skill improved with each flight.

The flying conditions after the rain were great; calm and only slightly cool.

I did have a couple more flights with some jets, but then Robert and I flew our old-fashioned 3-channel gliders for some relaxing fun.

It was an amazing night! Anyone who didn't show up missed out, I got to the field around 7 and there was a clear sky with barely any wind!  I got a few flights with my Habu and Yak, it was also my first time using the new runway and I LOVED IT! Never missed it

WHat a night! Finally saw my Extra 300 flying 


Thanks to our Chief Flight Instructor @thehaze who backed me up on the buddy box.


Awesome night... can't wait until next Wednesday

It starts off raining but everyone waited til it's clear. 

The wait is all worth it!!! 

Clear sky with almost no wind.  With Greg help, I flew my Apprentice and completed all 3 batteries.  (With no wind tonight, those 3200mah flies over 15 minutes with 1/2 throttle); Even maiden my HK FlyBeam (thanks again Greg and Mike).   

I even flew my Phantom Quadcopter. 

What a terrific student night!

Hey Mike,
Just wanted to say thanks again for the lesson (and for probably saving the Apprentice from needing CA glue.) You guys have a great club and I am looking forward to flying with you.

I too had a wonderful evening at the field.  I had given up when the rains came early in the evening and didn't even charge batteries to prepare.   ON a hope that it would be ok I charged some packs and headed out.

What a great training evening!  Im sorry I admit I didn't help anyone else but I did get to take my daughter for two very calm and relaxing flights in practically zero wind.  The plane flew very stable and was a big boost to her confidence.  I witnessed some other great flying from several students and seasoned pros out enjoying the conditions!

Great time guys!  If you missed it you missed a good one

[battlestu]

thumbs up from everyone!

It was a great night everyone ... already looking forward to the next one!

[sihinch]

So sad that I missed all the action last night. I blame Ed, he told me that it was raining!

Glad everyone had fun - seems like a very successful night.

Another Wednesday is here!


Instruction starts at 6:30 this evening. Charge your batteries and get ready to fly.


The forecast is calling for winds from the east at 15km/h so we will have lots of crosswind fun!
