Title: another great day at the new ASRCM field april 21
Post by astroflyer on Apr 21^st, 2012 at 3:10pm

despite high winds a bunch of flying today, especially helicopters. Test flights for replacement strykers and jon's replacement flying machine. most went well, joe's stryker made an unexpected detour into the bushes. (see video)

the second shelter went up thanks to Jon, Joe Craig, Paul, Harold and Bill. Steph provided the cheerleading section. Thanks Steph!

Barbecued lunch (hotdogs and hamburgers) was provided by Paul and Harold. Thanks guys, it was delicious!

1. jon back from the test flight

2. joe almost back from the test flight

3 and 4 harold and his escapade heading off for a very windy and successful flight
