For foam I was thinking Gunderson HS. Lots of grass and it is real close to Hwy 85. Tomcats is only a 15 min drive from there. We will have 2 members there so we should be OK with the guest thing. If not I will join up again and one of the guys can be my guest.

My cool SebArt Oracle foamy biplane splattered itself last weekend after 500+ flights (it was due), so no foam for me at the moment. Any foamy recommendations for a Hacker A20 and airfoiled wing?

Hey guys, here in The City having a great time with Momo!!! Driving completely off nav, we hit Coit Tower, GG Bridge, Sausalito, Marin, other side of The GG where they have all the old WW2 Batteries, a missle base, Union Square, and headin' to Harry Denton's for the cocktail hour.

Here's some shots, one in particular reminded me of a bunch of my FlyingGiants friends, we'll head by The Castro District tommorow to get some more

Back on the horn in the mornin', heading to San Jose tomorrow. Lookin' forward to hooking up with The SJ crew!!
