I'm not going to make it down Ralph. Was out last weekend with boat club and it wrecked me.

Hi Ralph
I hope to make it down on Saturday but all depends on how Eileen is doing on the day as she has not been too good over the last two weeks.

Turns out the cloud rolled back and although the wind remained very light and gradually went more easterly during the day, there was some pleasant flying with our F3RES models.  Small group - just four pilots - but very nice to see everyone.

Four different F3RES models here - a Slite V2, Andreas, Pures and X-Res! We really should fly them off the line sometime, but great models on the slope on a very light day like today.

A good session with all 4 pilots getting at least one flight. Peter had the most flying with about 2 hours in total I think. Anyway, thanks for everyone coming down. Next meeting is in Tonntinna (sorry about the spelling.)

June  11th,

See you there.
