The grandchildren and parents visit!

This is a big deal since they rarely venture up this way. We had a fine time and Liam thoroughly enjoyed himself...


Radio Control Flying

A quick post about a resurrected hobby. I used to fly when I was working in New York in 1979. Decided to restart. Here are my first two aircraft. The small "foamy" Cub was to see if I still enjoyed enough. I did, so I bought the larger one. It's an 80 inch span Piper Cub with a .46 cu.in. engine. Not a great learner aircraft but repairs easily!


Jon took a few great photos when he was last up here:
