These are late, but I'm having so much fun down at the beach and at the CCRC field, I couldn't find time to edit the pics... A few more for the pile from Kinston:

Bryan & I went down to the CCRC field (home of the Summer Sizzler) this week to get in a bit of flying while on vacation at the beach with our wives. The folks at CCRC were very kind and allowed us to burn up some of their airspace, and made us feel very welcome. Here are a few pics...

Couple of ??'s. What scale is that Honda biplane? What is that blue and silver engine? It looks like the Evolution logo, but doesn't look like anything I have seen before.

The Bipe is a Hanger9 46%, I believe. As far as the engine goes, here's some info about it:

We'll have to make sure that Jeff keeps us up to date on his 109 project and the use of this cool engine. INNOVATIVE!
