The French Invasion! - 02 April to 09 April

<< < (2/4) > >>

Fred:
A massive thank you to Brian, and the Model County club members, Alfie and Rob (hope I forgot nobody!) for the warm welcome and hosting of the aerotow show and tell meeting!
The French pilots are over the moon, and the legendary Irish hospitality is no legend! Great great time had by all!

Thanks also to the MACI members who traveled to the field, hope you liked what you saw! :)

They are now making stock of empty bottles to make huge ice cube to travel back with some meat! (Weirdos! :) ). Thanks Brian! :)

Here are a couple of photos, much more to come!

Gearing up for the slope now. Apparently, they can fly in nothing, so we'll see! :)

Happy Days:
OOOOOoooo, :) :)

So what were conditions like, pictures look like there weren't many thermals around  :(.

Got any videos of gliders being taken up? :D

Brian:
Hi Fred,
That lot won't be short of empty bottles.   :o   :)

Happy Days:
Four little videos here of some take offs and landings care of "Big Keith" Byrne. :)

Thanks Keith
