Hi there,
Sorry for the very late post, had to deal with some emrgencies at work since Sunday night! :!:
Once again, thanks to all of you for coming :clap: Great people, great slope and epic lift do make a real good mix for one of the best week end we had this year!
The showers did not stopped us to fly on Saturday (we are real hard core slopers or what!?), and even if the weather was not looking too good for Sunday, all finally lifted at around 10.30, and all was set for another great day.
Some great display from the Shannon guys (no buns though... So went to plan B and brought some nice models to keep us distracted!), Ralph with the Kulbutin, JP with a passenger jet when not doing bombing runs, Fergal with his Typhoon, Peter, Jim, Chris (sorry for the glider :!: but at least, we know where it is, so we'll keep an eye on it!) and other pilots (sorry, not too good with names :oops: )
I have a few photos (not much sorry, ran out of batteries :oops: ) and no videos from me (thanks Keith for the video :clap: ).
On another note, for me, as Bono once said : "...And I stiiiiillll haven't found, what I'm looking fooooorrrr...." Start to stress now at this stage! :!: :?
Anyway, time for some photos!
Saturday, setup a tent to wait for the showers to go through.
On Sunday, Ralph was thinking we were in summer! Fool! Time to gear up and stack the layers! :P
Dave 4m Fox
John's 3m Fox. That thing fly and looks great! Makes you re-think about the cheapo Chinese stuff! That one definitively worth a look at!
Fred:
