The RDRC Travelling Circus loaded up and headed to the NC coast for some flying at the SUMMER SIZZLER event with the Crystal Coast RC Club in Newport, NC (near Morehead City). It was a great day of flying at their nice, green field! Thanks go out to CD David Jones and all of the CCRCC members for making it a memorable day.

Here's a bunch of pics that I took during the day. I know Dustin and Jay also had their cameras pointed for most of the day, too. So we you can expect to see exactly what happened.

Hey guys,

My friend and I just got back from a 24 hour single day trip to pick these two beauties(sp?) up! I always loved the ultimate but I gotta say the yak right now is in better shape! Hope to have the Yak up next week! I HOPE?

Gurley I understand you have a power expander! Care for a trade or would you rather have money?

The Ultimate has a little damage under the rudder but that plane just really need some TLC!
