Simply beautiful here in NC today. Clear blue sky, gentle breeze, a bit on the cool side but not enough to make it uncomfortable. Flew my Multiplex Solius, caught a few thermals, did some mild aerobatics. Also my Durafly Excalibur, always fun. Finally my Free Wing Lippisch P-15, sweet flying plane, but I dumb thumbed it into the cotton field. Those cut down cotton stalks are tough on foam. Got some repairs to do, but it'll fly again. Just not tomorrow.

One of the few things that tempts me to ever go near Sacramento, California, is the sole remaining Cab-Forward at the California State Railway Museum.

If I ever get everything organized to do so, I'd like to build a suspended track set-up like that, and run my old HO scale Espee Cab-Forward on.

Recently, I’ve been in a place where it is beyond too cold to fly RC. In fact, it’s too cold to fly some full scale aircraft; Yellowknife, Canada. We are doing cold weather testing on a new helicopter, and most of the week was at about -40 deg. That is plain temps, no wind chill. The cool thing is that it is also the home base for Buffalo airways, so I’ve been able to get up close and personal to their beautiful C-46 Commando.5 Photos

Nice! Love that awesome Bell 47!! One of my favorite aircraft, and a true classic. Love the trains as well! My Grandpa passed down his O-scale layout to our family and I spent a large portion of my childhood working on the layout at the hangar. Someday, when I get out of my tiny apartment, I will bring the layout down from MN and get it back on display.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Buffalo Joe's C46 is the only one left flying, pretty darned close if not. Buffalo Airlines really helped us out when we were rebuilding our DC3. Joe McBryant and his maintenance chief came and visited us and gave us the greatest compliment regarding our cockpit, they couldn't get over how realistic it looked and that everything was right where is was supposed to be.
