August Already!

 Yes it's August and we are still here, the weekend 11th to 13th, we had an influx of associate members with a few nifty models to fly.



Looking good.


Unfortunately met it's demise on Sunday.






Look what I found securely tied to the shelter superstructure.


Oh boy! Twin carbs!



NOTE, electric starter.....how civilised!




Nice winter weather for the campers. A good weekend all round.

Cheers, Geoff. 😎

IMAC

 Well, whatever that means.

Actually, it means  'International Miniature Aerobatic Club' administered in Australia by
Australian Scale Aerobatics Association  https://scaleaeros.com.au/index.php
they had the use of our field for the weekend, while we provided the immaculate field and food.

Here are some pics from Saturday the 27th.












Not bad weather, but was not up to our usual standard.

The food was though! .....Yummo!

Cheers, Geoff 😎

Sadness

 But HAPPY!

Our wonderful hobby shop, "ToyLand" in Bairnsdale has closed, Ian and Jill are retiring after many years in the Nicholson Mall.

We wish them a warm, comfortable, well deserved and safe retirement.

Many thanks to you both from all your customers over the years, you will be missed.

Very best regards,

Geoff.

Epic

GLIDERS.

Battery power enables us to control our models in the air.

When the battery runs flat, sometimes the model keeps flying.

SOMETIMES they are snagged by a tree.




Yeah, Brians nifty glider, stranded.

Help on the ground from Mick and Rob along with a lot of string, a bit of weight, a long length of thin rope and HEAPS of energy.


Eventually.....SUCCESS




HEAVE HO, HEAVE HO, HEAVE HO, HEAVE HO.



SOMEHOW

It must have got caught up in the string when it was dislodged.


Lowered gently to the ground and returned to Brian.


NOT - A - SCRATCH!.

Well done those blokes.

Cheers, Geoff. 😎

Here are some photo's.

ACTION Event.

Cheers Geoff. 😎
