Got a little too close to the power line tower during dive recovery, and it now has a new foam board decoration.

There possibly be a few there tomorrow with a chance of a shower and moderate winds...
Gravity sucks, or should I say, is the downfall of all things flying. It's the way it's controlled that makes the end memorable or not.

Yeah. Can’t unlock first gate but second is open.
You can drive around the first gate, just be careful, some obstacles to go around. Keep left against the big log and watch the plumbing to your right.
I’ve driven down. Only one here at the moment.

There is a muddy wet patch at the base of the roadway coming on to the field, drive around this as you may get bogged. Field is fairly dry with wet patches around. A beautiful days flying today and expect the same tomorrow. It was very warm today too.

Looks like it’s going to be very windy tomorrow.
Sunday will be the better day - wind up to around 25kph. I’ll probably be down Sunday morning.

Hi Robert,
Great to see you On Our Forum, Browse around on general side and enjoy.
About an Hour after you left we had few members arive, and Sunday we had quite a few more flying all sorts of planes.

Hoping This Weekend coming we have a bigger turn out, so if you have spare time come and visit meet other members which are more than happy to talk about everything
including rc   Smile

Steve
