          Great to hear!! If the wind lets up here in a hour or so. I'll be doing the maiden on mine. If not tonight, i'll be already loaded up for tomorrow morning. Weather predicted to be almost ideal for flying. :)

          I'm counting the days till NEFI 2017.

            Can you believe, 5 planes in the stand and a potential for 7 !!

                Thanks Ben, I couldn't believe it either but there it is. The F7F is riding in the trailer, on the bed, I really don't want to yank wings on it if I don't have to.

                        There you go, great place to maiden and not a better bunch of guys to maiden it with !
                        Last year, people were flying ones they'd won and some that they had bought from one of the vendors, outta the box and onto the air !

                          First posts from the trailer as I picked up an HDMI cable so I can run the laptop through the TV. Works great so now I can review all the pics from that day and , hopefully post them to the Squawk if there's wifi on sight

                              Not sure, but don't remember not having wifi. I'll have my laptop this year as well. Also I'll be going into town every night and can post from there to the squawk and our other platforms. If you aren't on Instagram it's pretty cool. Here's ours. http://instagram.com/motion_rc

                                  Thanks Grossman, I really hope that it works. I'll be checking in with you guys from time-to-time from vacation with the family in Florida. I really wish I could be there!!!

                                    So I'm at work last night and my boss says to me "I see you're off this coming weekend, got anything special planned?" He'd put me down for the wrong weekend, luckily I was able change it! With all the overtime and family obligations I have still not flown yet (in 30 years)! Should I bring something to fly?
