A big day of Flying!

Today was the Cowlitz Valley Radio Control Flyers annual picnic and fun fly.  I was up early and got there at 8:00, Mike beat me, he already had his plane assembled.  I had invited the Lewis County Radio Controllers and 7 members showed up.   The event organizer Gary, said that there were 18 people who flew during the day.  They sat up a spot landing area and a limbo, both of which turned out to be lots of fun.

This is Ken going under the limbo ribbon, it ended up getting cut a number of times.  I hooked the landing gear on it and it did not break, instead the plane ended up upside down on the ground.

The club provided hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and water.  Many members and guests brought salads and desserts so we had an excellent meal.  Lots of flying went on all through the day.

These are some of the planes I flew today, I also flew two helicopters, the F-15 and the Yak55P, all electric except for the purple one on the left.  It is the fastest plane I have and it is powered by a 32 that has been modified a little.  Another modeler was bringing his Mustang so we could race.  He had a little engine trouble, so we only got one flight together, but it was sure fun.  I finally called it a day and headed home about 6:00.
