3 of us from Dublin and 2 addicts from Cork were graciously invited to

Weather was kind and our hosts were magnificent as always
Many thanks to them all once more
Great variety of control line planes
Best of fun all day
too many photos to include all here are a few

2 at a time not so bad after all, I seem to be at max now

Beautiful site you have there.  I had the opportunity to spend over two months in Belfast at Short Bros PLC back in 1984.  I stayed at the Strangford Arms in Newtownards. I had the time of my life there and would love to go back again.  If I ever get to I want to go flying with you guys.

Hi Wynn

it is Jui Sirotkins 'Spacehound'
more pix to follow, I have 27 in total
but problem with attaching large numbers
will have to wait a week or so until
work/time allows another attempt

Your friends Sukhoi looks top notch ,
out of my price range , but the plans
are always interesting to read, even
if I never build one!

Happy landings

Vincent

My wife and I are coming over the first dated week of August in '06.  We will probably not do much modeling as I will be busy not running into anyone on the right/wrong side of the road.
