The red DR1 is a plan built Ziroli 1/4 scale. The Bristol is a 1/5th arf, the brown DR1 is a highly modified Flair 1/4 scale. All the other planes are Balsa USA 1/4 scale kits. I didn't bring out my 1/3 Pup, and one other friend didn't make it with his 1/4 Nieuport 28.

Our field is pretty nice, there is a little more petrol mat than I care for, we used to have a nice swath of grass along the far side of the field, but the desire for crosswind runways sort of Ate that up...

We have a levy ditch on the North, and tall corn THIS YEAR on the South.. but we manage to have fun . I will tell you though, when I visit a field with long huge open grass area as well as a runway... I am envious !
