Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!

Hey lads,

What a beautiful day that was !  :D  Really happy, flying conditions were absolutely fabulous. Hours of flying !
So, for a first ISR meeting, we can already say that was a real success !

4 pilots, 11 models on the slope (more in the cars !  :wink: ). Next time, hopefully, we will be more, but for a start, that was great !

Those who were not here missed a great day of fun / flying !  :P

Ooopss..

Forgot to mention that a video "best of the day" will come soon (this week  :D )

Some really nice footage of the Grunau and Ka3 in the air (sorry, for me, that was the best moment...Ok, a bit of narcisism here...  :oops: )

And thanks to Alan's father for the group photo !

Excellent day!.Just what the doctor ordered  :D
5 pilots if you count Dermot who had his first glider flight.
A good selection of models too.vintage scale,modern scale,sports,electric,combat! the only thing missing is PSS(i'm not counting the F15).That will change for next time.My Spit is in hospital and the U2r is not ready yet and maybe a B25(Fred?).They'll be there next time  :D
Thanks to all for coming out.Was very nice to have ya all on my turf!!  :lol:  :lol:

I'll see if I can get the pilatus flying this weekend. It still needs some repairs. The only day I can get to laken is proably Sunday evening. Hopefully the weather cooperate  :roll: .
