          yes...
          fortunately up here in Finland, temperatures are still above the freezing point. Of nitro fuel.

            Didn't get out today but did go after work on Friday night to fly the Trex 500.
            Got to the field and the wind was really strong! Wasn't too sure but decided to try anyway as flying time is limited at the moment.
            Ended up having 2 really good flights, did my first front flip and also my first extended loop :-) It was exciting trying to do stall turns and watching the heli get blown half way across the field!
            Nearly went home after the first pack though as my fingers were seizing up from the wind. Must remember to pack my fingerless gloves next time!

                Weather superb here at Croft Farm.

                Breezy but quite warm.

                2 x Swift1
                1 x Swift2
                1 x Trex450

                flights.

                So not bad. But really rusty as I have not really flown since before the Champs.

                Hope you all had a good day too.
