The day (Sunday) not a great day for Aviating as been blowing 25 plus knots most of the day with rain.

Tony R and his Kiddly Bits were out and about and decided to try flying there Choppers in Tony's Hangar (Boeing Hangar it's that big) as you can see the girls are quite adapt at flying and had set up a slalom course to fly round.

Then they tried there hand at pool

One of Rex's Plane a Pixie I believe it's big powered by a 75cc Zenoh engine.

All I can say is at least there is a plane in Tony's Hangar now.

Friday was a pretty wet one as were Wed and Thurs.

Only one I caught out and about was mark and the Cresco as ya can tell it didn't look pleasant flying weather.

As you can see below the local Fowl population seemed to be enjoying the Puddles of Doom which appeared WED.

A few more DOOM puddles than last time I think we we had 120mm up on the Mountain in 12 hours.

Allan W was out roaring round getting in before the rain forecast for rest of week.

 

SSF will be getting a fright as did 20 hours last month and already 7 hours for Dec.

Good idea so I went.
