What is it with Ralph and twin engines?
Gremlins meant maiden was not a success,

Ian overhauled the engine of this Stampe, part of a collection he purchased a few months back.

You know, the models in the shed with prices on them.

Plumbing was not as it should be, so some time was spent actually getting fuel to arrive at the carby.

 Brian had no luck in firing up the engine for the Sea Fury for its first run, so the cowl came off to reveal the stunning practical exhaust.




Meanwhile Ian flew the Stampe and declared it a "Keeper".

After the wet.

 Wednesday 29th dawned as a fine day and plenty of members turned up to FINALLY get to fly again after weeks of bad weather.


Our few low areas still retaining a bit of water, but otherwise the runway was very good.

A temporary drain was dug to reduce water in the pits area.

 Graeme had the Victa out to blow away the dust.

 Toms glider gets a rest after tearing up the sky.

 Ian gets help from Ron as he commences run-in operations on a new engine in a new model.



(Below) note the mess coming out of the practical exhaust pipes

Car park is not the greatest place when it's damp!

Yesterday was Wednesday

Charging station getting a good workout.

Great day, good turnout.

Brett clears the fence with his Radian Pro.

Tom had many flights with his "Old Timer"

UH OH!

 This can only mean ONE THING!


Yep, an uncooperative infernal combustion engine.

Un-fuelling.

Ron B brings the Extra back.

More un-fuelling with the breeze at 90 deg. to the runway.

Catching Up (at last)

Long ago it was a very nice day.

Lots of guys came to fly
