SLOW Club Sunday Flying Session

Fairly small turnout today due to the holiday weekend. But Glen, Charlie, Paul, Don and I got in a lot of flying. Perfect flying weather-no wind-overcast-70 degrees!
Paul finally brought some planes to the field. Both of them brand new. A Neumann Profile Stuka powered by an OS 46 LA-S and a Core House Gotcha Psycho ARF powered by an OS 25 LA-S. Both planes flew well and survived!
Glen flew his McCoy powered Skyray 19. Awesome! Who knew that the old McCoy Redhead 19s run so well?
Charlie flew his Fox 15 powered JR. Magician. One of the best running Fox engines around.
Don flew his Hexdrone and Paul's Gotcha Psycho.
My McCoy 35 on the Mongoose II is finally broken in. Today I got the kind of engine run I think I remember from my youth. And the plane performed inside loops, outside loops, inverted flight, wingovers, and horizontal, vertical, and overhead eights. Not bad for an engine made in the 1950s.
Also several flights on the JR. Nipper. It is still my best flying plane. It is so much fun it is astounding to me.
Pictures to follow.
