Default An A-Ok Day for 1/2A

The planets finally aligned today. Work schedule, family committments, and weather all cooperated to allow some quality flying. Took nothing but Cox engine powered airplanes to the field and traded off center stage with the local big gasser pilots. Came home tired, sunburned, and smelling of burnt castor. I have to say it was a good day.

That's a great lookin' squadron..!

Castor has got to have some sun block value, nothing like that great oily feeling at the end of the day.[8D]

Tee Bee, I'll agree with C.P.- That's a good looking squadron of airplanes there. I especially like the Minnie Mambo. It kinda reminds me of the Sig Junior Kadet I learned on 35 years ago but with real landing gear (tail dragger) and alot better workmanship than the Kadet i built.

Yes, a good day indeed by any measure.
