John,
"Closing in", indeed. I won't be flying my Comp Arf there any time soon. Truck trailers and light standards to the north, warehouse and light standards to the south. Our beautiful "open field" isn't what it used to be. I got out there late Saturday, after everyone was done flying and on their way out to try and get some foamy/electric flying in. A bit too much wind, flew the foamy and that was about it.

Hey Mike, any chance of getting you to change your name to.... say.......
"SUNMAN"
Great news Maverick,

Archie knows your acheing to be back in the air. I hear the work went well. Today, at least part of today, I will be SUNMAN. I see blue skys now and mostly clear. Time to head for the field!!! Caution, I go back to Rainman this PM, so you better get out to fly early... bring your yak. I am calling Kyle too, he's on spring break. FLY,FLY FLY....


Are you going to go 2.4?

I will get video next time. I hope my camera is fast enough. That plane is a rocket! It is totally Rad! I won't one, actually, if I could just have one of everything that flys, then I'd be happy. It is definitely gettin cramped for landing space. Big planes can still be flown and landed but they have to be greased in. All you have to do is fly your full scale down and join us.

Mike,

I was flying my Tribute FX. I'll see if i can find some lights for it. I won't be at the field today, I'm in the middle of swapping engines on my Edge and I have to work tonight . Looks like it's going to be a nice day though......I may stop by and chat, we'll see.

No 2.4 for me yet, hope I don't regret it. Just can't quite fork over the bucks for it yet. I'm working on a complete rebuild of the landing gear box on the Yak so can't fly that yet either. I'll stop by the field & chat though cause I'm going to Archie's to look at the Carden.

Looking for Lighting.

Just found this one, and it is similar to the Curtek that I have on my Viking.

Thanks for the heads up, why do you have to rub it in that you got the last one though???

Picked up a couple QQ Yaks for some downtime flyin' at the PB, this is gonna be one cool kick off event!!!!
