...and an airplane with everything working. Got in five or six flights


this morning, only one of

the airplane. No damage





either. Flying is fun, even if it's just a model airplane. The wind came


up so most of the flying


ended.




One guy had a beautiful model A-10, which he could fly much like the real


A-10 flies. However, as he


was trying to land it, a gust blew it off the track into a soccer goal


post. Busted a wing, landing


gear, and a few other assorted pieces. Hopefully it's fixable.




Lot's of fun!




Working on the boat in front of the house, wished I had the camera. B-24


doing tourist flights nearby. Struck me how small the planes actually


were. Considering the newer fighters and bombers.






There is a huge club, they were flying today in the wind right next to

one of our tracks. Petty cool watching the big planes play in the wind,

standing still and just flying up and down into the wind, holding

positition front to back, side to side, etc..


Maybe you were seeing some 3D flying also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVihCOt7jQw
