Well I didn't have the camera so no picts. What a beautiful day yesterday - a little windy - but beautiful. I finally got to meet the web king - Roy Barrow - great person and outstanding flyer. Lee Reamey was out and as usual put on a show for us. Joey and Kent were scraping and painting on the building - loooooking gooood guys! Kent also was working with one of our new members - teaching the renowned Kent Rogers fly in two days method. Seems to be working - time will tell! Chick did a great job on the fan shroud. Howard got a few flights in w/his 42% Extra. Just like the rest of us the wind was kicking even that big plane around. Bill and Terry were out w/their pattern birds - now that was a show at times when the wind kicked up. Bill was perfecting one of my signature manuvers - the "waller around" and was doing an exceptional job with it. Terry was practicing "I can land my plane faster that anybody and stay on the field" thing and came close a few times. Missed all of you that couldn't get out! OH yea - Louis visited us on his new big red motorcycle! It is pretty but you can't haul many planes on it!

Out for now,

Was that the IMAC unknown sequence you were flying on Sunday or was that the famous Roy waller?

Great to see activity on the forum. Wish I could have been out with you guys this past weekend. I was at the Toledo Show for IMAC. I WILL BE OUT THIS WEEK. Looks like today is for kite flying.

Can't wait to see what chick has built for the air-cooling system. I tell you guys, anything he and Kent does for the club is always a cut above!!

Roy,

Now I just knew I liked you based on your name alone but now you've gone and told a few "stories" here...

I assume when you said "great person"...you just left out the word BIG in between those words...that's OK...but I have to ask...were you not looking when I managed the highly skillful feat of cutting off my engine in mid-flight with a brand new plane...so OK that's what I get for moving the throttle trim to the side switch but "outstanding"?...NOT!

It was great to meet everyone Sunday! It was really good to put faces to names and it was even nice to see Howard, Terry and Bill...it's been a while.

See you guys again soon!

Thursday was an unusual day at the field. Phil Vance was there and had trouble putting his plane together. His pit crew wasn't there to help him. It was good to see you out there Phil!

In case some of you guys have met Roy and did not know, he is the guy that built us this great WSRC web-site. The best part is I can't get him to bill us!!
