I spent the morning getting Hallowe'en out the loft and now I'm reconstructing my Kaos-framed Logo after stripping the main gear. The girls are being witches very loudly, getting hazel twigs up and down the stairs.

I must say the weather is nicer than expected though.

More chores later, so no chance of sneaking off to the field.

Just come indoors after doing 2 batt's in the back garden, decided that discretion was the better part of valour after the occasional gust pushed the 450 around a little too much for my liking. The canopy got blown around the decking between changing batt's so thought time to stop.

All back in safe and sound phew :)

I've been flying in the back garden, maddened the vision 50 comp :)

Today of the three forecasts I watch two of them said partly cloudy and one (the met office) said heavy rain.

I went out to Epsom Downs with a Robbe Futura to fine tune some pitch curves for hovering. I kinda accomplished what I wanted and hovered out two tanks (that's a good 13/14 minutes a tank as it's a big tank).

But this was only after spending about 20 minutes under an umbrella while it percipitated rather enthusiastically. Fortunately it was not too windy or cold.

Only 3 of us braved the rain, the rest went off home. I fully expected them to just be in their cars but no, they were gone for the day (and most never even got in the air).

(the first pic is of the other two loonies who stayed taken from under my umbrella, then the partial rainbow after the sun came back out and one of many shots I got of a very nice Spitfire flown by one of the club regulars)

A beautiful day in MK. Done nearly a gallon of fuel and had the last flight of the day with the Sun gone down leaving a beautiful red sky behind. Lovely......
