Tuesday 28th

A fair few down the field yesterday, was a little breezy as seems usual these days. Mike Steed had a deadstick in a lousy position with his Yak and had to land out with slight damage to his undercart and engine box. We had a visit from the "Ancient Mariner" on his way home to Anglesey Nice to see you Marty to see you nice enjoy your leave.

The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere. That's one sinister, and weird poem I tells ya. What's his chops Coleridge must have been eating a fair few banana skins when he wrote that!

Yeah was a good night actualy, I really enjoyed my flights. First time in a while Ive landed after every flight with a smile.

In my time there I saw Bri, Pete Sq, Allan P, and JOD. A good time was had by all

Some very intresting models on show too



Allan was having a whale of a time flighting the wind with that beauty. Andy Im sure you will aprove of the wheels

I was just about to give a nod of approval to the wheels!

Monster Wheels on Planes is all the rage!

5 1/2" I was practicing landing the beast and soon found the 'rough' was no problem to taking off

Stripped the Yak down to survey the damage and not too bad!! The undercarriage plate is OK and the undercarriage itself only needs bending back into shape. Main damage is to the bulkhead and that only needs glueing back in. On the whole, quite lucky. Should be back in the air by the weekend.
