Bev - when we got home from the show it started raining and rained all night. Being at the air show all weekend I was not able to fly. The next afternoon My son and I went to our field and was disapointed at all the water standing in the runway. I looked at it and thourht -Why not? I got the ole Hobbistar 60 out ,put the wing on it, fueled it up, done all my checks, fired it up and taxied out and took off. It was bad slow getting speed enough to take off in all the water. It looked more like a boat than a plane but I was air borne. Ben , my son said, KEWEL DAD , put the wing on his Tiger 2 and done the same thing. We spent about 3 hours parting the water. It was a good afternoon for flying
