So look at todays weather and think, OK got a bit of work to do, but if I get through it quick can get down the field by 1.00pm and have a nice afternoon.
So the days goes badly and I finally get packing the car at 2:00pm. I rush around get everything loaded, fill a flask and get going. Half way there I look next to me...... bo~~ox.... forgot my flask! Oh well stop in a shop and get a bottle of water. Phone Mattie (Lodge) and rub it in that I'm flying
and arrive at the field at around 2:45pm.
Weather is perfect, zero wind and sunny
Jump out, set table up, get helis out, fuel up and check battery levels, quck check over helis and .................. Where's the Tranny!!! I check everywhere, even under the car and in teh bonnet (how I though it might get there I don't know) ............. < silence, heart pounding>............. NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I only forgot the tranny!
Now at this point I had to make a decision. Do I jump up and down in an empty field? Throw a few helis? cry? OK, OK, I decide that the best thing to do is pack up and do my best to accept the fact that I've been a total Wan~~r.
3:05pm So I drive home, Phone Mattie and tell him the good news, which he is of course very sad to hear.
Make good time and get home to find my Tranny waiting for me longingly.
3:40pm I get back in car and go to the local park. I fly the Beam and instantly forget what's happened. It's brilliantly accurate and so nice to fly!
In the end I got 3 packs in - one basically in the dark and considering the day I had I am very thankful I own the Beam.
