15 August 2015

Well as the weeks race by we are ready for another day of flying and as usual the wind has come along for the day... Not as bad as it has been but still enough to be annoying. 

 
 
 
Even with a windy day predicted and becoming reality lots of club members come along anyway knowing that we can still get some flying in regardless of the conditions.





 
Billy was all keen to get some more hours up on his Cap with Greg along side with some great words of wisdom. Your doing a great job Billy. Almost warbird time...
 
 

 
 
 
Our latest Proud achiever of their Bronze wings was James.
 
 
Yep we see it...
 
 
Now lets see what you are all about....
 



 
Curtis was out with his Astro Hog for a few flights knowing that they might not be as easy having now after the Birth of his Son... Congratulations .... OOOWWW how life is about to change.......

 
 
Turk readying his Flybaby for another sky tear up session.

 
 
There is a little size difference between the flybaby and his mustang. Both exciting to fly anyway.

 
 
Mystery surrounds Turks mangled big toe. As the story goes he dropped something heavy on it but as the club truth comes out it appears to be something completely different.
Turk, not wanting to become headline news and tainted as a hero, had to kick out at a flying full size helicopter blade that had broken free from the helicopter he was fixing. Turk instantly calculated the blades trajectory and knew that it would contact a bus full of young kids heading to the airport. Without any hint of personal safety he struck out with his foot and deflected the blade out and harmlessly away for everyone. Boy what a guy........
 
Of course there is another story going around about him being as full as the tax departments bank balance and stumbling around in the women's section of Kmart trying to chat up one of the mannequins only to trip and kick his toe on the metal base.
 
I like that one but the one he is trying to spin is he dropped a heavy BBQ plate onto it.
Yer right.......(you'd never lift something heavy)   You make your own decisions...HEHEHE
 
 
 
 
Simon getting some instruction for Turk the toe...
 
 
 
Anthony didn't have much luck with his chopper so out it went and into the trailer for something else.
 
 
Out come the old Tango.
Boy did it cop a pasting. Sure hate to upset Anthony..
 
 
 
 
 
Some heavy concentration happening on the flight line.
 
 
 
I had several great flights with my Boomerang.
 
Until
 
 
 
This is what happens when you loose control of the thing Slow, and turning in high winds.
 
I know the walk of shame. Ain't that karma a bitch.
 
Balsa anyone..
 
Well we are getting ever closer to securing our new temporary field. Hopefully hear some news this week.
 
Hope to see you all out next week for some more carnage oooh I mean flying and fun....
