Electric Fly In and Picnic

Today was the Lewis County Radio Controllers annual electric airplane fly in and picnic.  We headed up early since we had all the food.  The first thing we did was set up the sun shade, tables and chairs.  Using the motor home for one side works great, it blocks the sun and wind really well.

I flew the B-36 three times today and the landings got better with each one.  I helped cook this year, the only problem was the barbecue would not light, it turned out the burner had shifted when they wheeled it over from the barn.

I borrowed a couple of pictures from Dick Anderson for the blog, he counted 63 airplanes, 16 helicopters and 63 people at the Fly-In.  As things wound down, we got in some more flying and helped clean up.

This was as we went out the gate, time to head home after a great day.
