It's been a long time but with the wind and rain,then more wind,but the last two days were beautiful at 6 pm,but tonight the wind came and so did the rain but we decided it was time to "hit the air" .It wasn't the most beautiful flight with the wind tearing at the wing and rain,doggone rain was on the outside of my glasses then the wind blew it on the inside of my glasses and no time to try and clean them,just flew for a good 10 minutes before the instructor called it quits but at least i finally got the chance to fly.The weather is calling for rain thru saturday so it's the waiting game all over again
,Seems if it's not the wind it's rain or both since i bought this plane.

Sucks don't it?
Whats even worse is if you live far enough a way from the field the you can only fly on the weekends and it is beautiful all week, then the wind and rain hits on the weekend. Its like you were excited all week for nothing.
Darn weather, I feel your pain man. There has only been like 2 or 3 nice flying days that I have been able to go to the field this year. The rest is flying in the wind.
Maybe the weather patterns will change soon since summer is on its way.
Good luck,
Wings

Best of luck to ya, I might fly in a little bit if I can get the batteries charged in time>
Flyin_High.......That totally sucks man!!! I would prolly go out of my figgin mind if I had snow on the ground for that long!!!!
Besides, airplanes aren't ment to be on the ground for very long.
~~~HAPPY FLYING~~~
