ISR Glide-In - May 10-11th 2008
« on: January 18, 2008, 09:00:57 AM »
Hello there,
The first ISR Fly-In of the year will be held the 10th and 11th of May 2008 at Mount Leinster.
Note that Vincent and Joelle Besancon from France will be there, flying with us !!  :D  :D
The event is spread on 2 days to allow people coming from far away (Kerry and so on...) to have a bit of a rest and enjoy the week end without having to rush on the roads !




 :lol:

I've now got something to race with Chris. We have a couple of new 2 metre moldies on the way for the shop and I have the terrible task of testing one out!  :lol:
So count me in.

Icewind we have a club Easyglider that you can fly if all your gliders are in Portugal.

They are in the post Chris
I will put them up on the site as soon as they arrive with photos and videos etc..
Just need to get out flying now a get some video.
2 metre all molded F3B/F3F type glider. MH32 profile.
Just one quick flight in strong lift (coast site) so far. But it flies great. Need to do a little more work and then I'll fly the **** out of it and see how it holds up!
They will be around the €300 mark. Perfect first moldie and a good introduction to performance gliders I reckon!

Yes. I brought my car with me! Unless i wouldn't be able to bring at least my RC gear bag and the wing! :)
Despite back in PT i left a ton of gear and my all fleet! :)
I may charge the LiPo today, it's been stopped for these weeks and i don't want it go all the way down... :(
