Flying at LCRC

We went flying at Toledo early this morning to beat the heat, but by afternoon it was pretty darn warm.  I have been wanting to try out the tundra tires I put on the little Cub for quite a while and I remembered to grab it this morning.  I am putting air in them before the first flight.
It was just Vera and I for most of the day, but Bruce showed up with three new planes to test fly.  I did the test flight on one, a Hots that ended up flying fine!
I have one like this, but with a conventional tail, Bruce had modified his to a vee tail and it flew great.
This Sikorsky helicopter flew by while we were flying, boy was it noisy!  It is the type they use for fire fighting, so it may have been headed to one.
