Don't think I'll make it down Ralph and think it's still a little early for me to be travelling. My immune systems not the best after all my surgeries!

Hi Ralph. To get the ball rolling, I will be at the aerotow, likely Saturday only. One or both of the lads may come with me. You have my mobile!I'll be bringing the Ka-8; do you have towlines?
Thanks, Kevin

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