The weather gods are smiling on us today, but the strip will still be a bit soggy for larger aircraft so I will be flying out west today.
Take care in the air!

Well, that's good news, because I have gone back to normal non holiday roster... Steve... mate Biggrin lol

Yeah, I need to get more take off and landing practice and see if the Stinson will still fly with 3 sticks of hotmelt holding it's airframe together...
Signature overload. That list just got ridiculous. However, Funcubs are .... fun.

Well, that's good news.... It just feels soooo heavy... lol, but it was before hand too.

I decided, worst cases, it would either go up, run out of lift and turn into beanbag filler and never fly again, or sit under my house on an assumption and never fly again, so might as well try option one.

I checked out the field late this afternoon and it's fine for use tomorrow - plus the weather again looks very good.

I'm planning on flying during the morning and then disappearing before going back later in the day to give the runway a mow - it doesn't really need it, but it would set it up for the weekend.
