Hi All,
RIOND has the time off, we've a couple of planes, a couple gallons of fuel, good attitudes and hope in our hearts. Spadfest looms on the horizon!
That so and so RIOND got all hyper and told me that he was building a .15 FNS out of clear coro. We had both purchased the Wal Mart battery operated lights last winter so he was pretty much equiped for night flying. Then he had the audacity to actually show me how he had rigged the lights to work on a 4.8v battery. Darn him!! Not being able to stand the fact that he could be the only night flying North Dakotan spadder, I had to join the pack. As far as I know, he's not finished with his and mine is ready for crashing, er, flying! I am thinking of luminescent streameers for a little night combat. Whoooo! I can't fly very well during daylight, let alone night combat but what a concept!!! We've a few painted bowling pins ready to go. I've been watching the threads and the bowling ball canard is just tooooooooooo much!!!. If we ever unthaw, I'd like to try hauling a wiffle ball around some. I still lean towards crashing into the pins as the better, more impressive havoc.
Riond has to make reservations at the park because I forgot what number we were at last year. Gotta be an age thing. Perhaps more of the park will be dry this year. No matter, water helps clean the good Iowa soil from between the toes.
Looking forward to seeing all of you again.
Mike

Or are we limited too electrics? 
I figure I could throw togeather a ME109E for night flying and just cut a glowstick open and cover the plane with it. We did that in the military with glow sticks that you had to wear night vision 
but the jumping ditch bank nailed day time flyers as well
