Take a look at the picture from Jim’s camera mounted on his Radian and see if you can spot the downed plane in the corn.

This is Jim’s second successful search and rescue operation with his camera in two weeks. Great job Jim!

A very busy night at the field and beautiful weather. Lots to see and plenty of guys doing some great flying. Check the pictures page for more or click the image below!

Everyone,

If you didn’t make it out on Saturday May 21st for the event you did miss a good time. I wanted to thank the members that did come out and do demo flights, buddy box flights, and talk to people that were on hand and had questions.

On Saturday 13 people did at least one flight with a buddy box and all reported having a great time and learning a lot about the hobby. Of those people five reported already having planes and a few expressed interest in joining. Hopefully we see a new member or two as a result. I still feel it was a success just to get people out and see the hobby in action.

One downside was the Holland Sentinel never did put our event add in the paper so all the traffic we had was from Cobblestones and the great sign Larry made for us. The Sentinel was emailed the information, and I spoke with them on the phone and invited them out, they just didn’t show, no wonder newspapers and print media are going the way of the dinosaur.

Thank you again to everyone for coming out and making it a success. Let’s get our heads together and do this again in June.

Get yor combat planes ready for some fun after the May meeting at the field. This is for bragging rights so get ready and come on out and see if you can shake the bandit on your 6!

Fights On!

These pictures I took just before I maddened my 26 cc gas powered Super Star, has 70 inch wingspan. Thankfully, it returned to the pits just as nice as it looked in picture. The plane flew very well, no bad tendencies and landed very smoothly. I believe I will like flying this plane during summer months, when they finally do come.
