I like it warmer. But hey, it's February in Iowa.

My "Go to place" for alot of my flying. Bellevue Iowa. P-38 Flight 11 February 2017. Light wind and about 44F temp.

Hey Lon, where did you download that sweet horn for the sound card? It sounded like the NHL all star game(s). So windy today, only flew a stunt kite for about 15 minutes. At least it didn't rain, and the dam at Oroville didn't pop :Whew:

I believe it actually is compliments of the busy north and south railroad line running along the west shore of the Mississippi River. That flying site is right next to the river. And at that point the RR tracks are under 200 yards away.

Just :Clown:ing around ;), it definitely sounded close.

For a 43"span balsa ARF that you provide ALL the electronics, I like that Bipe but not that much.

[Grossman56]

Time for a FliteLine version!

[Grossman56]

Of course, right after the OV-10!

[OV10]

Good thing you followed up with that pardner or ol' Festus would be carting you off to see Marshal Dillon :Silly:

[Grossman56]

Thars gonna be a shoot out!!!

[boomer108]

It would be worth going to NEFI just to watch you two guys in action.LOL

[PappaBear]

This is where I fly, nothing to hit only the ground. The yellow plane in the picture is the real thing, not a large model !

Boomer...........Your closer to it than we are, basically spit'n distance compared to how far Gman has to hump it so no excuses and get yur butt thar and have some fun with us.

That just ain't right Martin. All that wasted ground school study about runway entry and exit obstacles. :Silly:

[Aros]

The first photo shows off my new flying spot which I am so happy about. 1,800 feet nearly unobstructed pavement. Plenty of runway for any giant scale I want to fly. Even though there are light poles they are pretty far spaced and the runway is plenty wide with none in its path. The second and third photo (yes that is a paraglider having an emergency landing on the soccer field) is where I usually fly at, the back of the junior high school not far from my house. Obstacles for DAYS!

[TiredIronGRB]

Sweet, however I do like the grass on that soccer field better :)
