I do not think many people would argue about this labourday weekend must have been the best flying weather all year!!!
Hey Sharam, I thought you took some group pictures! Post them if you can!

I flew my Chips all weekend. The old FP.20 was starting to give me trouble on the Sunday. I went home at lunch and swap in a newish Maginum .25 This is nice engine with bags of power. The extra power was amazing but the wee Chips didn't appreciate that by shredding my elevator into 2 halves. It showed up as Flutter. I got off the power and landed safely. My thinking is to redo the entire tailplane in thicker/stronger balsa. The Chips was never designed for a modern .25 Basically like "Art schole's" my Chips will be turened int a Super Chips.

Only Negative thing I saw this weekend with so many people flying is people leave the field box's in the start up area all day. It like tip toe-ing through the tulips to get your plane out to the flight line. Anyone else notice this?

See everyone tonight We want to hear what you did this summer? I got some nice hardware to show tonight.

I flew everyday (Fri-Mon) - mostly at 7:00am but the flying was best yesterday. Anyone who stayed at home really lost out.

My SmallFly is such a blast to fly!

If I'm not mistaken, that image is from the episode entitled "It's Christmas in Canada".

and yes... before you ask... it *IS* just this kind of trivia that makes me the life of any party.
