Default Winter Huckin' In California

Um, not!! Some shots from the field this past weekend getting some flights in on my new plane and breakin' her in. Weather has been simply unbelievable out here recently. This past 5 days, it's been 75, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky. I'm starting to enjoy this global warming thing. Apologies to all my east coast buddies

My local field, OCMA, is located in the so called "burn area" of Southern California, specifically Black Star / Trabuco Canyon where that whole mess a few months ago started - the wildfires completely surrounded this area.. Note the now green hills, it's a very peaceful place to spend hobby time. We have a very hard working club, and board. It's a killer site.

Enjoy & best-- MD
