Default Hi from the starting to thaw north

Been lurking for awhile now (since the morning this site was created) and am tired of seeing the "stop by the welcome forum" when I log on so here I am. I am into flying anything with wings or rotors including turbines as long as it is not colder than -10 F. Then I am into flying the simulator and indoor foamies.

Welcome Akflyer! It's about time you said hello! Hope the weather warms up quick in your neck of the woods so you can take the skis off your bird!

Thumbs up Re: Hi from the starting to thaw north

Hello from another first timer. How cold is it up North? I attached a picture of my old Sig Kadet LT 40 on pontoons that I flew last week off snow at our field in Northwest Pennsylvania. I originally had a .50 and now have a .61 in it to give it a little more get off the snow power. Also a couple pictures of my 1/4 Patty Wagstaff Extra in warmer weather. Lots of fun.

Hey Monroe,

It's great to have you join the crew!!

It sounds like you have things under control, flying year round isn't a bad life, ya' think???

We hope you like what you see on the site, the bosses have tried real hard to make this the best site for RC flying on the web, we think they've succeeded.

Welcome to the Giants!!!
