Looks like my weather mojo has died, today was cold, overcast & windy and did I mention cold with one of those lazy winds that goes straight through you.
Regardless, four intrepid pilots, Stephen, Gerald, Kermit & yours truly turned up to face the elements. We all got to fly a couple of times but did not stick around for a BBQ lunch today, everyone was too eager to get back to nice warm homes.
I had a mishap with the “Li’l Eagle” biplane, pilot error in that I was trying to look at Stephen’s broken motor shaft instead of where my plane was flying. I’m sure it’s broken nose (for the third time) is repairable once again.
Stephen managed to snap his motor drive shaft on the red devil also today. (the spare shafts I have here are 5mm so no good for you) At least his Decathlon flew well.
Kermit brought his whole menagerie of planes along today but after a lot of testing & fixing only his Bix 3 wanted to fly.
Gerald flew his Eyas Eagle but I think that was about it for him today. Hopefully he got some decent video the rest of the time.
As mentioned I flew & pranged “Li’l Eagle” but had more luck with a flight from the Excalibur V2 (after repairs from last weeks rough landing) & a couple of flights with the SonicModel AR Wing.

Wow! That was good flying in the blustery conditions Mr Kermit. Well done.
Similar conditions out at the duck with quite a bit of DF95 nose diving.

Today’s voting is ready to post but I’ll wait till after tea just in case our intrepid Overseas correspondent Hoppy wishes to add a video from his neck of the woods.
I’ll wait till 7:30 just in case he is out sailing again in the lovely summer weather of the Philippines.

Not “all” of us crashed, but yes it was a fun but cold morning.
Sorry but I don’t like your chances for the GMA Kermit – No Donuts! (even though I did like your video)

Well done Gerald. But we need a discussion on what happens if its a 50/50 tie. Does the President then get the casting vote? This is the big issue in The Philippines at the moment.
