Getting ready for Saturday

 Saturday, the Longview club is having a Fun Fly/Picnic so I started getting the 1/3 scale Sopwith ready to fly.  This is James with it in 2000 at a Fun Fly.
He wanted to bring it back to the pits after a flight.  The first major part of the job is getting it down from hanging on the ceiling, it weighs 37 pounds.  It took me a little while, but I finally got it on the floor with out destroying anything.  Then the search began for the radio I used for it last time.  I never did find it in any of my radio's memories, so I started programming it into a new one I have.
