I got down here to AZ in October and it hasn't rained here since before Christmas. Total rain for the year is 0. People don't go out and do things if it's below 62, they just wait for tomorrow because it will be warmer.

Tim,
We will try and remember the task. To all that miss flying. We feel your pain. We will fly for you. Just do whatever you can to get out of that place!! There is no spring in Western Washington anymore. It has been sucked up by global warming!!! Or something. Maybe global climate change. Its from flying gas airplanes thats all I know. When the envirementalists find out our hobby is done! shshshshshshs.....
Western wa is very nice. We lived there for 48 years. And when you can finally fly you appreciate it so much more. Ill shut up.

It kind of drives ya crazy after awhile. Especially when it hits June and you keep expecting a span of nice weather and it doesn't come 'till July...

Yeah, I scratch build foamy's and get to fly them all the time at home, but still It's hard to find a day for the big planes and it's just nice having good weather...

Looks great

Anyone know if there are camping spots avaliable at Wenatchee thsi weekend, or what the process is to get a site? We're planning on leaving tomorrow afternoon/early evening to head over, not sure if we can get in at night or not, either way, we'll be there Saturday morning. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Kevin, Go back to post #765. You can get in touch with Michael Hunt (president of the club) prior to showing up.
See you there and thank you so very much for making the trip and helping out.

Thanks! My first try at painting and building one of these.
DW 3MM 32in. Yak 54 Pro (Indoor version)
I've added more CF rods than the kit provides, and also have tried a 3 cell poly. This battery gave the engine so much power it tore the nose off the plane! It's like having a DA 500 in a 30%er.

Really fun plane though, it just needed a little more reinforcement to stay together in flight.

Thanks Mike. We're watching weather closely, as of right now, we can't get over the pass in the RV, hopefully warmer weather today and tomorrow will take care of that. Anyone have a report from Wenatchee?
