Saturday Flying

The weather forecast for today looked pretty good until about 4:00 so we headed up early and got there at 8:30.  Here I am putting the MXS together, it is a great flying plane and I have flown it every time we go out since I got it.

My first flight of the day was with this Sabach 342, another great flying plane and about as different from the MXS and you can get.

I haven't flown this quad since August of last year, so I mounted the GoPro on it and put in a flight.

This is one of the pictures the GoPro took from about a hundred feet up.

This is some of what I flew today, I ended up flying 9 different planes today but I lost count of how many times I flew.

Members Leonard and Audrey were there today also, this is Leonard's Old Timer.  It is a design from the 1930s that was built many years ago and it flies great!

Vera and I had a great time capturing this picture of me launching Sunday (strange name for a plane), it took us 4 tries before we got what I wanted.  Right on schedule it started getting windy this afternoon so we loaded up and headed home.

I got more planes in the bedroom than normal, so Vera suggested a picture so I would know how to do it next time.  Not all of them show but there are twelve in there.

While we were at the field, Jackie sent us some pictures of JP at an Easter celebration, this is my favorite.  We stopped a Betty's for burgers and then parked by the Cowlitz in Toledo to eat.  That was a nice relaxing end to the day.
