I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ Smile .

Anyone got any good tips how to stop glow fuel exhaust residue going everywhere when bench testing glow engines? Don't really want it going everywhere in my shed or all over my yard!

Anyone who says "switch to electric" gets a poke in the eye! What a Face

Use the clothes on the washing line as an atmospheric demineralisation unit

Diesels give classier goo btw

Hmmm - Iv recently re-slabbed the yard so dont want to get it sprayed everywhere really! just wondered if there was anything I could put over the exhaust to catch it without hindering the exhaust gas flow! No

Just to let you all know that I have been to the field and met Ray(the potential new member). Neil was there.

I had few flights and the weather turned !

Oh and Ben was NOT allowed to come to the field today as he did NOT eat all his lunch today ! Maybe tomorrow confused
