Hey guys it's snowing here in MN is that the official start of the building season. Actually you can barely tell its so light. **)

Unfortunatley that white stuff does signal the start of the end of flying season. I did get 3 flights in yesterday on my F94-C Starfire, but pretty soon it'll be time to put the engines away after oiling them all up. A sad day it will be.

My building season is pretty much, well, all the time. I'm always building something.

My basement shop is still in a shambles cause of some remodeling. So the thought of starting any planes is still just a dream.

I woke up this morning to about an inch of snow here in Kalamazoo, Michigan %^ I am not ready for this! I still need to mow both flying sites once more before putting the snow blower on the tractor. Bushes to trim in the yard, and a tree house to finish for the daughter. '' '' ''
It isn't even Halloween yet! %^ %^ %^

So it is snowing. That shouldn't stop the flying. The only month John and I didn't get out to fly one month was that I was out of town that month and when I was in town it was too windy. We flew one year with ice on the ground for a take off strip. Just need to layer the clothes. DOC Holliday

It is actually building season for me here in Tucson. I build in the garage (divorce is expensive) and all summer the temps are over 100 in there. Cool weather is here - mid 80's - so it is time to get the new OTS airplane ready for VSC. Since I don't fly well, I think I'll build a good excuse. I have an Umland kit for the deBolt Sportwing. I bet not even Bart Klapinski can fly a nice pattern with it. With a Veco 19 for power, it should be fast anyway.

I'll put my money on Bart, especially if you let him have a couple of trim flights with it. DOC Holliday

Building season never totally stops for me, but it certainly "ramps up" a lot through the winter! I'm currently gearing up for the upcoming "season" myself. y1
It's the only thing Minnesota winter is good for in my opinion, I need to hit the lotto and move to Tuscon. ;D

Not yet building season, after this past weekends contest, and the weekends before, I am still in repariing season! :-\. I have to repir the twisted sister, rerig the tudor, find a use for the nobler wing, hmm gonna do an ElDiablo OTS, then move on to the bf 109 project that is fermenting in my brain.
