Howdy everybody :)
Quick message, just to say that we had a ball! Great company, great craic, great wines!
Don't have the official numbers yet, but about 50 pilots battling the elements ( that was what we call Keith weather! No shortage of wind!)
Anyway, more later, now off to visit the D-Day sites, starting with Pegasus Bridge and the Horsa glider, Utah Beach etc etc.
then, one of my plane is going to be part of a museum collection, with a private visit etc ( see Falaise last year).
Fantastic holidays so far :)
Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!

Great news Fred.  :clap:
I think you’ve misunderstood the museums’ request though. It’s you they want for an exhibit, not the plane! :P :lol:

Er,…by the way, this thread is a little bit short in the picture department. So far we’ve only seen ONE!  :evil:

Given that it was Frenchmen who invented both still photography, and moving photography I think you and your fellow countrymen are rather ‘letting your side down’, don’t you think! :wink:

Here, we’ve been experiencing a good ‘blow’ on the Big L as well. :D  Lots of  lift and loads of ballast needed. Yee Harrr!..... (That’s what I call real flying 8) )
