Goble Flying

Vera and I headed down to Goble this morning for a fun fly at the Cowlitz Valley RC Flyers field.  As you can see, it was a little cool when we first got to the field.  There was a small turn out and several people left early to attend club member Rich Davis's funeral.  There ended up being 4 of us flying in the contest.  They had a spot landing marked out, none of us could hit it during the contest, but as soon as it was over, we all hit it.
Vera helped out during the contest by reading the maneuvers each of us had to do.  The rings on the ground are the spot landing area none of us could hit.  We had a good time and flew until about 5.  Here is a link to a video of the red triplane flying. https://vimeo.com/41223642
 After leaving the field we went to the upper viewpoint on Hwy. 30 West of the bridge, had dinner and enjoyed the view.  Then after a stop at Fred Meyer for groceries for tomorrows flying and gas, we saw Bev and Debbie, who were getting ready to go pick up Debbie's Jeep.
