I intend to make the 25 minute drive... I'm spoiled, but I hardly got up the Big L last year...  :(

The Skylark still needs it's maiden.

Hello everybody :)

Catching up!
I'll be there of course for the 2 days.

Should I print a few A&B certs stuff if some want to try it before the big day?

I might have a try at the Cert exam :-\, but I get very nervous :(. I'll have a go if someone will hold my gland :-[ ! Sorry,..... that should have read "If someone will hold my hand."

 ::) ::) I hold whatever you want!

I try to find the mark sheets (can't find them on the new MACI website yet) and print a bunch.

We will do another A&B sessions in April :)

So here is the Mighty Mountain herself still snoozing under an upper layer blanket. I can't hear her snoring so she might be about to wake up. (Not the best picture I know, but she is some 25 miles away)

Wind speed at my location is absolute Zero at the moment ???

Temp: 7.8 C

Humidity: 81%

Come on then Lads, 'sound off'...who's going up there today.

I'll be up there around 11, Big Keith is also threatening to join us today.............

While there wasn't enough lift to keep it aloft, the Skylark does fly (with a chuck from Ralph)...

Oh, well done dear Boy. If not the product of your loins, certainly the product of your hands!  ;D

And you repaired that little Robbe to airworthiness. Quite the successful model builder aren't you!!! :)

Should have been there yesterday, more than enough lift then. ;)
