Flying Sunday afternoon, April 22 ?

Weather should be excellent (14 degrees and 11kn north-west wind).

I'm thinking of flying after the swap meet. I'll confirm on Saturday.

Anyone else?

Yep!

Oh yes, sounds like a plan!

It might not be cold enough for the likes of @Andy Hoffer , but I will try.

I hope it's not cold enough for @Andy Hoffer

Oh Yea. Charging tonight. See you there sunday, although I was by the field yesterday and the driveway was pretty snowed in.

Who is this Andy Hoffer guy???

Ryerson and I will probably be there Sunday. We have tentatively set up 12-2 and will confirm tomorrow (Saturday) just in case there is a blizzard overnight. Don't trust the weather any more. Ryerson's sessions are usually 95% prep and 5% flying. We will do the flying during a natural break in your/my flying session.

Don't forget to meet us for breakfast before the Swap Meet. Bruce has promised to only charge me double the entry fee.

No swap meet for me, due to family commitments.

But I'm free in the afternoon and the batteries are charging.

Michael · April 22, 2018, 03:21:16 PM

Weather warm, sunny sky, winds light, grass wet, ...

about 15+ people flying, some good flights, some not so good, overall, .... fantastic!

It was a fabulous afternoon. I had a brilliant time! It was magic to see everyone again.

Let's hope Spring is here to stay.

It's a wonderful day. Great to see everyone again!

It was a great day to fly, but not to have to retrieve a warwing from the mud field. It took me 1/2 an hour to get a plane that was only about 200 feet out. If I had put another one down out there it would still be there.
