What a Saturday! Great turn-out with parking at a premium (lots of puddles!). Warm.... mostly light winds.

Great to get Jamie up for 1.5 flights. And wow... amazing. Checking all of the boxes including a landing. Way to go.

Also good to also get Brian up for an introductory flight. First time beyond a simulator. He did great and was really improving towards the end of the flight. It's all about stick time and Brian is keen!

Tomorrow is looking great. I popped by this evening and Bob has the grass nicely mowed. We should be able to enjoy it tomorrow!!! See you there!

Sunday funday! And what a day! Great temperatures. Great winds. Great group.

Yesterday's mowing was well received and made a huge difference for today's take-offs and landings. Thanks Bob!!

Lots of great flights from everyone!

Great to have Jason up for two flights on the club Apprentice. He was also checking lots of boxes with straight and level flight + turns + figure 8s. Also great with take-offs and nailed a few landings too. Way to go, Jason! We hope to see you back soon.

Also... towards the end of the day... great to see Jeff and Greg. Both have their MAAC memberships. Greg is more experienced with nitro planes and is getting into electric; Jeff is newer to flying but was really doing very well - especially towards the end of the session. Way to go. Be sure to come back to HEFA and enjoy the hobby with a positive group of people!
