Wow was it a horrible day to have to go flying! As you can tell by the picture it was pretty rough but my plane and I survived!

Hi Dan,

Looks touggh, it was 80 degrees here too....

Question: Where do you fly in Ojai and are turbines allowed?

Our field is at Lake Casitas. Turbines are not allowed but the Condor's field in Camarillo does. I spent 20+ years in the military and was stationed at a number of bases. When I retired and stayed here this was one of the biggest bonuses. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever flown an RC plane. The fishing is pretty good too!

Lake Casitas is such a nice place to fly! I've flown both off of the runway and off of the lake...talk about a stellar backdrop! BTW: your club puts on GREAT float fly-ins!!

Looking out my office window I suppose that I could throw some ski's on and fly off the frozen lake. At -2 f shouldn't be to bad this morning.
