Easter Weekend April 2009

Couldn’t get out today (Sunday). ‘Family commitments’ I think is how she put it. It looked like great flying weather, though. If anyone’s got any pictures, send them over!
Did manage a few hours on Saturday and had a great time flying the Cub with Michael. Will Harley turned up later on with his re-engined and tweaked electric Dornier, which Michael test flew for him, very successfully. A few pictures below to give the general idea..

Will's Dornier Before

Before!

Will's Dornier - Its flying whether it wants to or not!

During. Looks like a case of ‘It’s going to fly whether it wants to or not’!

Will's-Dornier-and-away

Up and away! And into the ‘out of focus’ bit of sky that is my speciality.

Will's Dornier After

And the happy/relieved walk back to the pits after a smooth landing back on the patch. Looked great and flew well. Will declared himself ‘well pleased’.
