A day of rest, AKA Flying

Vera hopped out with the camera and took a picture as I unloaded the first plane.  The sunlight has a red tint to it this morning, probably from the wildfire smoke.
This is my line up of planes for today along with the Bird of Time which was under the motor home.  The two boxes are sitting on some old model magazines, one box is a charger and the other is a heat gun for shrinking covering.  Our friend Rick is moving and gave them to me to pass on to someone who could use them.  Chuck took the charger and some of the magazines, Jim got the heat gun because his had just burned out along with the rest of the magazines.
This full sized motor glider was doing lots of flying today.  If you look close after clicking on the picture you can see little wheels in the wing tips so he can taxi.
After taking off he can stop the engine in flight and retract it into the fuselage.  If he needs it again, he can extend it and restart it while flying.
