The Stinson Trimotor is different looking. I kind of like it too.

Slow at work, so here are more.....


Greg Hahn's wonderful B-17 fights the gusty cross winds.


This was what the DVII brought back from it's tree pruning. There were leaves in the horiz stab bracing too.




Martin Justis's Buker Jungmeister. First scale competition for Martin.






M favorite! This great looking FW190-D was totally destroyed unfortunately. High speed stall was the culprit the pilot told me.


Gary Wild's Chipmunk (I think).




Greg and Cindy bring the B-17 back to the roost until the next flight.


Turbine powered F9F panther looked great. If you like jets. Heck, even if you don't it was cool.


This flier did pretty well with this little Cub in the wind.


As did this Hangar 9 Camel.


Steve Ort (Old Scale Guy) did well with his GP Pawnee ARF.






Yes, it was brutally gusty. Bob Underwood did well to fight the winds and bring his Staggerwing ARF in with only very minor damage. Note the pieces of landing gear doors. I was glad (not the right word really) to see a vertern flier like Bob as "dry mouthed" after a hairy flight as I am (after most competion flights).
