Title: flying june 08
Post by astroflyer on Jun 8^th, 2012 at 5:38pm

Five flyers out this morning for an absolutely beautiful and windless day. A lot of flying was committed.

Robert from HEFA was a visitor this morning and brought several planes including this parkzone spitfire equipped with HK retracts. It flew very well and was sharp in the air.

Bill had one of his old birds recovered and revamped with new larger tail surfaces. It flew very well. Not sure what he's gonna call this one. Might I suggest "yellow peril" ;D

Actually there were six Al… I know the Newfie calculator normally only counts up to five. A fellow can count up to ten using both hands. ;)

Great morning session. I have my Fly Guy repaired and ready to crash again.

I don’t know about the Fly Guy Sugarpups…. He may be on some unauthorized drugs. He lost his head yesterday. Maybe Geritol will help.

It helps me get through the daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. :o
