Rain or not . .we're flying. . last year the terrible twins were up in the drizzle, and we had Outlaws making passes in the mist. Unless it's torrential, there's not reason to put the planes away. last time I checked. . servos and receivers were mostly water proof. . . .

Juju does not exist. . . . . .your plane is waterprrof anyway . . .unless there's a foot of water on the runway preventing takeoffs and landings . .you'd better be flying.

We have a covered gazebo.....

if it rains, flight line stays where it is, but pilot stations could maybe be moved back

Looking better and better for hucking weather!

We need an award. . . . "Wet Feet Hucker" . . .for the guy who has the most flights while it's raining.

Conditions . . must start, takeoff, fly, land, and shut down .. while it's raining .. AND not hide under the shelter (C'mon. .be a MAN about it. . you won't melt .. ).

Slogan . ."The wetter. . the Better"
