March 2007 Club Activities
Flying at the Dome

John Ferguson and Lee Tait (of the Romeo Club) worked a little magic and arranged for use of a soccer dome to do a little flying a couple a days a week from 11am to 2pm. We surly owe them a vote of thanks for this wonderful place to fly out of the cold and win.
Barney Bauer and the Foo-fytr. Obviously it is an original in Barney's own style. Joe Haas and his Delta. Joe is a stable of modeldome in the area. Tom Laclave, Tom finds the nicest RTF toys around and has a ball at the dome. This one flies nicely.
The "Wolfer" and a pizza plate. Darn thing really does fly well. Dave Corven and his Miss II or some such variant. Nice to see Dave in retirement mode. Your webmaster and his Edge 260. Starting to learn how to fly it. It does mid-airs nicely.
Tom with another little RTF Hutch "The Sticker Man". He really turns left well. I get to play with Hutch's Blade CX in prep for my Trex that is coming soon.
Our Prez, Kenny, concentrating on hitting the Dome walls.        
Flying at the Field

First nice day for flying for the year brought out a few of the ORF's to catch some of the great thermals that day.
Ken and I showing off our new "One-Design" Multiplex "Easy Glider's". With about 20 of these in the club, color schemes are important when in a gaggle. Barney and Dennis discussing the great day. Wolf doing a little work to improve the visibility of his wing. The extra drag was too much but it still looked cool.
Mike Holmes getting some pointers for his new Electron II. It is a great plane and goes up on a gopher belch. Barney showing that DHL is all about form. Mike's new  "Big Bird" flew fantastic right off the bench. Dennis has had his "Little Bird" for awhile and loves it.
