Another Wednesday

 The guys are assembled for more.
Antenna exit.





Ian W is adding more detail to his wonderful Cub, here the antenna has been added. The radio frequencies required a long antenna, this was stored on a reel and once in the air, it could be unrolled to the correct length for best efficiency.




Trailing antenna detail.



At the end of the wire there was a drogue to keep it extended and keep it fairly tight, once again for best  transmission performance.
A nice scale detail, I approve.
 NOTE CAREFULLY, the person is sitting in the back seat, the pilot seat is between his legs.

Just WHO is flying this plane??
 Barry is flying one of his Biplanes, Graeme is obviously flying a Glider.








Talking about Barrys biplanes, the blue one is very very very old.
Some say, it was a development model for the full size aircraft.
