New Year’s Day 2025 brought promise of a good flying year. Temperature started out in the mid-20s and the winds were light- about 6 mph with a slight crosswind from the North. But the wind dropped off to 3 mph about noon. Then, to paraphrase BB King: ‘The Chill Was Gone’ and it was perfect. We had a nice turnout of 15 members. Bob McFadden and Leonard Baker brought homemade chili for us to enjoy and several people brought sides and goodies to share. Thanks to Leonard and Bob who got there at the butt-crack of dawn to get everything set up. There were several tents and propane heaters, so it was comfortable even in the chilly breeze....

Mike and Harold did some formation flying with their electric ducted fan jets as the crew watched and Tom was sky high (with his motor-glider)... Read More

Here a few photos of some 3-ship formation flying with Cessna 150s by Mike M, Mike L, and Harold A from last Saturday. I’m not sure who was lead, and I’m not really sure they knew either sometimes:) Sorry about the quality, it was just a cell phone.
