Nice flying site, the weather looked good, and I like that tune from one of the spaghetti westerns.

101% for sure...everybody had FUN.......BIG TIME.
Sunny Sky's,no rain and a very light breeze coming from the west.
No Problem at all for small and lite models, just PERFECT.
Saturday night we all met together for Cologne "Kölsch" Beer ,Bratwurst  and "LIVE Rock Music".
Early Sunday morning (6 am )the whole field was covered with Spidernets.
Those tiny Spiders followed us all sunday long.
A few made it inside the venturi behind the spraybar, but they all failed.
I am pretty sure our Spiders like the smell of Castor oil very good.
Anyways.....
Excellent and VERY GOOD Memories you will NEVER FORGET FOR A LIFETIME.

Just like Brodaks in your Country
but just a few bites smaller.

Allways tight lines

VERY cool and creative video!  LL~ Steve

In 1944 18-20 year old's stormed beaches, and parachuted behind enemy lines to almost certain death.  In 2015 18-20 year old's need safe zones so people don't hurt their feelings.

 What a great video! I love the music too. I would love to attend this event in some day. Next event is in 2019, is that right? It's far away, so I need some time to plan.
Cheers,
