Launch Summary
Finally, back on the range. Huge thanks to jack Mathews for volunteering to tow both ways. Praise and Thanksgiving to veryone that helped with range set up and clean up including Jack Zeidlik, Bob Dixon, Greg Caster, Jon Skuba, Jack Matthews and whomever else I missed. Great to see everyone and meet some new members like Ryan and son Benjamin Southworth. Hats off to Joshua Curry and Payton Winsor, all the way from Rapid City, South Dakota. Kudos to all that braved the cold to punch holes in the sky. Notable flights include "Das Boot" from Scott Evans behind the RC controller, the "Clusterduck" 7 motor cluster, the un-balanced drag race between Larry Bowser and Dale Netherton. 28 different fliers put up 63 flights, 40 Class One and 23 Class Two.
Weather Conditions
Could have been warmer but was remarkably calm. Temps might have reached into the low forties but with the sun behind partly clouydy skies, it took a while to get acclimated.
