Title: NEST Fun-Fly
Post by: ChrisSarnowski on May 20, 2012, 07:12:12 PM: NEST had its spring fun-fly this weekend in Wrentham, MA.

Thanks to Damian Sheehy for making it all come together, plus running the BBQ.

Thanks also to the lawn mowing team, and the folks who setup and tore down both days.

First flight on a slow(?) combat ship, thanks Brian...I now have LOTS more respect for combat guys!

Oh, and this Twister had its 6th(that's right number 6!) "unintended" inverted landing. That's 6 inverted vs 1 level. That was Damian's first! Welcome to the Lucky Twister Club Damian!

Steve Y and Steve T,

Thanks for the Twister, it's the gift that keeps on giving! I was very happy to have a turn-key practice-ready plane for the Spring. I really think it has 9 lives! The blades of grass just spooked the brittle tissue on my outsides. That tissue is now nice and "drummy" again.

Post by: Will Moore on May 21, 2012, 07:46:16 PM: Sorry I missed the "fun fly" this year. I'm in the process of moving back into MA,

and I've been doing it over the last 4 weeks. Sold my house in Woonsocket, and am moving to Webster.

Dismantled my hobby room and everything is in boxes in my new basement. Will take awhile to

get it all sorted out. Glad everyone had fun !!!
