PSS 13/14th March
Happy Days:
Yea’ blue sky here now with strong sunshine. Not much in the way of wind but I agree that an early start would probably be best. (Early bird catches the worm,….and all that! :P )
I’ll probably be up there about 10.00.
No point in staying at home, the heating’s broke.! :shock: The guy that was supposed to fix it yesterday didn’t turn up. :evil: (You can’t get the staff these days you know,....... you just can’t get the staff!!)
Happy Days:
Well, what a good time. As always, it was a great pleasure to meet the people who I’ve previously only heard of, and to renew the acquaintances’ of those I’ve already met. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. :D
Rather quiet in the lift department on the first day, :( but Sunday afternoon proved to redeem my faith in Big L. to ‘deliver the goods.’
Alas not quite enough lift for “The Big One” :!: but I think most of everything else flew. Including a strange little ‘Bat Like’ model from Peter K, a picture of which I’m posting for the main benefit of a certain German pilot.
(What do you think of it Lothar?)
All sorts of models were there. From the super fast, to the super, and right down to the super silly. A blue V tailed Thingy that, having flown three or four time promptly went on strike and refused to fly any more, and crashed! ( I’ve since found out that the battery had an intermittent open circuit)
I’d like to thank all who came over the two days, too numerous to mention but who’s photos will, no doubt, be posted later on this forum. (I didn’t take many picies, and what I did take didn’t come out very well. I couldn’t be bothered to put my glasses on when I was taking them, so I’ve “cut off” peoples heads :roll: ….Silly me!)

Hey Keith,
great Horten IX :clap: Looks like easy built from Depron :?: My regards to the builder.
All Your words sound to me like a great weekend. Is it still spring in Ireland? Over here it's all grey and the river went over the green I am used to fly, but NO snow.
Thanks for posting.

hi guys,
been back in the house about 20 mins after a long drive home
We stopped in the cafe at the SuperValu in Bunclody before startingthe long haul back North. Can thoroughly recommend the burgers :D :D
Thanks again for an excellent weekend,shame about the wind, but obviously older than God,(but richer than Croesus!) Keith couldn't get the necessary sacrifices made in time :twisted: :twisted:
The weather is the ONLY thing you can't control with RC!!
Will post pics and video when I've had time to check through it :?: :?:

Hi everyone,
First of all, thanks a million for everybody to come at the event ! :clap: :clap: People as far as Kerry, NI, Cork etc, hope you all had a good time !
Wind was a bit marginal for the biggest/heaviest of the PSS, but big winds are already in order for the next event !
Lots of flying done anyway, and I hope everybody pulled lots of flight time over the week end (I did ! :D )
So, here are a few photos, sorry, none of in flight models, my camera is not good enough for that !
Video to follow relatively soon !
The PSS :
And the group photos :D
And the big B52 again... :clap:
