Great Time

I had a wonderful time today at the Gathering. I met a lot of people that I only knew on RR. Great, top notch event.

forget night flying how about some storm flying......

Well I just got done wraping up all my electronic gear on my heli in cling wrap. The only thing that is not protected are the servos but I think they should be ok since they are sealed. I wonder how the heli is going to feel in a rain storm...LOL

Ohh... there'll be people here tomorrow

It rained pretty hard here for 2 hours or so... but it quit 4 hours ago... and we were outside enjoying the cool moist Fall night BSing. Bill did some nice night flying on his 600 night ship.

There are 3 excellent vendors here... so we have been watching guys snapping up 700s, blades, gyros, covers... and all that stuff.

Today was a beautiful day!! It was gusty off and on this afternoon ... but plenty of 50s and 90s in the air. I got 5 packs in on the 450 even.

RVs are parked in a row on the tree side. Vendor EZup tents and trailers - cars - and even our EZup frames are still staked down out there on the flight line... so we can put the tops back on them and fly when the weather gives up those breaks in the rain tomorrow.

It looks like we won't have rain all day... it depends on the speed of the storm and how much it drops before we get it. Not really sure though.

Rumour has it the Derby is tomorrow still... if we see a longish weather break, and guys are flying. If not... Sun still.

Guys are talking like Mark... we hope for a shortish storm ... and a nice Sun.

Haven't had rain again since the first one last night.

Right now it is cloudy & the sun is peeking out of the clouds once in awhile. It is breezy... but guys are out and flying some.

Radar shows the storm right besides us about 30 mi west... moving up north... but we are sitting in a pocket and no rain

Yeah

I showed up today and it was a total bust. Got 2 flights in on my 700 and that was it. Nice field though and was nice to see some faces again. I wish I could make it tomorrow but I cant. Its my Anniversary tomorrow so I will be with the lady all day. Any ways have fun guys and take plenty of vids of the derby and have fun.

Met some great guys again this weekend, some old friends, some new. Big thanks (both honest and sarcastic) to Clarence from Miniature Aircraft for letting get a tug on his ION-X 2. Now I want one!! Its a shame for those of you who cant make it tomorrow, weather is supposed to be beautiful. Vendors will still be there and the contests and raffle are going off. Shame the weather could'nt have held out till monday.

I'm halfway back home :-(

Sorry I can't be with you guys tomorrow but I travelled close to 350 miles to get there and I really couldn't stay until tomorrow evening to go home as I have some things I need to get done with the Mrs. tomorrow.

I did manage to get a couple of long flights today one with each gasser before the rain started and overall between Thrusday evening, Friday and today I put in 12 gasser flights (3 hrs+ airtime) and 8 trex 450 night flights (1 hr airtime).

Enjoy your day tomorrow and fly the friendly skies! Today was some rough weather driving back to CT in heavy rain I'm waiting for it to pass before I continue back home...

See you guys at the next event!

The Stars are Out

It is dead calm... along with a perfectly clear sky

Looks like it is going to be a good day of flying

It rained yesturday afternoon, and pretty much was just windy in the evening... but that didn't stop everyone from having fun and eating well (and drinking beer)!!

Kat made a whole lotta killer Seafood Rosa (shrimp, scallops, crab & pasta in a red cream sauce) - and Joe & Carrie from Uneak-Designs/ Canopy Condoms grilled up some really tasty chicken fahitas... along with fried chicken wings in Joe's special sauce (mummm Good).

There was food galore (THANKS Guys!!!)

Thanks guys... had a great time as always even with the rain day.
For those fair weather flyers (you know who you are)you missed a good one and some of you made it easy for me to reclaim the tital of "Derby King" again ...
Thanks team Choco or chicken or ovaltine whatever it is I guess you were afraid you would melt in the rain and get flushed into the Atlantic ...

And for my arch enemy Nabby you lucked out this year as we had something special for you
