Update:  3:00 pm

Winds gusting 35 kmh

Temp:  7C. (If you hide in the Portadump - my insightful spouse's vernacular, not mine - although it did give me a huge laugh!!)

Wind chill: -1C (even in the pee grass)

You definitely want snow pants or long underwear. Winter boots would also be nice, but rubber boots are better at slogging through the muck in the pits.


Summary:
Great flights, wonderfully challenging, crosswinds, and I am frozen! Off to Tim's for a nice hot coffee and an apple fritter to replenish the calories. I just burned off.!! 😂😎

little too windy for now but friday looks like it will be acceptable and if not sunday will be very little winds and 12 degrees.

little update on the f16
readjusted cg and actually did the smart thing and put the elevator and aileron rates on 3 pos switches. also tweaked the gyro a bit more

also i bought a waterproof box to keep me from braking more TX's.(left a spot at bottom left for tool i dont have yet)

thanks for the updates though Andy
