Taking advantage of a break in the ice/snow/wind/ weather Saturday, a good representation of LAFFers eased around the water-filled entrance road and muddy field conditions to enjoy a fine morning of flying with little wind and bright sunshine. Highlights of the morning included Matt Biga’s new Freewing “F-86 Sabre” (my childhood favorite airplane), and Steve Bell’s Dynam “Me-262”, which had patiently waited for its maiden flight for a couple of years. Suffice it to say, the wait was worth it. The plane was eye-catching and impressive in it’s performance in the hands of Matt Biga. The photos tell the stories of the two jets, as well as the fine flights of Bob McFadden’s Kyosho “Spitfire” gasser.
