Flying Session-Last Sunday

The weather last Sunday in MD was 70 degrees and sunny with light winds. Needless to say we had a good turnout at the flying field.
Chuck flew his Twister disguised as an Agcat and powered by a Super Tigre 51 C/L. It is one of the new Chinese made ones. And it performs beautifully. The engine is so powerful it is almost hard to hold down the plane.
A couple of guys brought 1/2-A gyrocopters. We found out they are too small to be flown near grass. A large completely paved area is necessary.
There were also 3 or 4 1/2-A board wings. They were mostly flown successfully. It seems like a bit of 1/2-A fever is sweeping our club.
Probably at least 12 other .15 to .40 sized sport planes were flown. No major mishaps. Just a lot of fun.
My Acro is fully repaired now and put in three good flights on Sunday.
My Streak ARF is also running fine now after a little fuel system maintenance. It put in three good flights on Sunday. No worries.
One of these weekends I am going to have to take a camera out to the field so I can publish some pictures. Pictures are bound to be more interesting than this.
