Thanks for the update Steve!

Sorry Ben, looking less likely I'll be flying tomorrow after all.

Anyone flying tomorrow? I'm planning to, not sure of am/pm yet.

Sounds good. One question: how hard did Toongabbie get hit by this afternoon's storm? (since I'm actually free to fly tomorrow, I guess I know the answer) Jonesing for some stick time here!

Thanks Steve. Will probably head down some time this afternoon.

Ugh, it's blowing a gale at my place, and came online to check whether it was any better at Toongabbie. Ok, building it is :) Here's hoping for better on the weekend!

Nice work Victor. On the approaches, perhaps try keeping a little bit of power on (just a bit more than would keep the prop turning). Regarding the thuds, you'll soon get a feel for when you're comi...

Heading to the field for a couple hours...

Perfect weather. Perfect wind. Perfect field. And, one a half flights in, the perfectly horrible stink of chlorinated gas or something of the sort (vented from one of the industrial units I suppose)...

Strip looked great, but does it need a mow? Flew the SBach straight off it no problem today, and that probably has the smallest wheels and one of the lowest clearances of our wheeled fleet. Reckon yo...

Victor, Angus and I must have just missed you this morning KB.

Yes Chris, I'm planning on flying from around 10am tomorrow.

No woories. Might aim to get there a bit earlier myself then.

Heading to McCoy for a few flights...[hr] What a pretty sight!

Was heading to the field on Sunday around 9:30am, but bailed when the wind and rain started in at my place (and continued on/off very lightly for much of the rest of the day.) Was anyone down at the ...

Not the most successful weekend for me I'm afraid... Friday evening saw my T-28 ultra micro flying backwards out of the park when the wind picked up shortly after take-off (eventually recovered after...

Planning on going to the field tomorrow AM. Not sure about Sunday yet.

Rescued a blue camping chair left behind at end of play today - please let me know if you belong to it so it can find its way home.

Conditions looking nice for a quick morning flight out there. Anyone heading over?

Thanks for the mowing Chris! Don't think I can make it tomorrow morning, else I would. I may be in the vicinity of Fagan Park later in the day, so if the weather plays nice I might drop in to HEMFC (...

Hey Gaz, field is not perfect, but definitely serviceable. Anticipate driving in will still be a marginal proposition - while I was there today , the 8 or so of us all parked up the hill just after t...

Yup, on top of the overnight rain, it's now raining here about as hard as I've ever seen it. See you all in April?

Anyone opening up tomorrow? Was thinking of heading down with planes and mower. After today's weather, and less than expected rain yesterday, was hoping it might have improved some from the state we ...

Looking perfect for tomorrow! George, if you're coming down, any chance I could borrow your FatShark's for a couple of flights?
