Flying

We were up early and headed to the flying field.  Two other flyers showed up for a little while but for most of the day we had it all to our selves.  The conditions were great but around one it started warming up so we headed home.  I had gotten in ten flights, so I was happy.

This afternoon I noticed the moon was out so I took several pictures of it.  This one turned out really nice.

My first thought when I got the camera was to include the tree in the picture.  The moon was sharper in the this picture than it was in one where it was right beside the tree.

Now that I have them both here, this one is OK also.  This evening I worked on my Stearman biplane adding some braces to the tail.  One side seemed like it had developed a crack as it would flex more than the other.  The real Stearman has brace wires so I put these in the same locations.  When I came in for the evening I put one flight on the little quad in the dark.  I am going to have to add a headlight to it.  Just before bedtime I am planning on looking for some meteors.  I already lit the citronella candle to ward off the mosquitoes.
