We had an unexpected visitor at the field today: It was Roger Wilson of the Fun Flyers club at McGiver State Park, who literally "dropped in" with his full-scale.GS Hawk 2-Place Arrow.  There aren't many R/C fields big enough to accommodate such a plane, but our field seemed to handle it easily.  On takeoff, he lifted off using less than two-thirds of the runway.

Ron Campbell brought out his latest scale project.  It's a 40% Citabria Decathlon, spans 154 inches, powered by a Saito 300 engine, and weighs 35 pounds.  As with all of his planes, it looked and flew beautifully.

Among others at the field were John Muir with his Super Cub, Bill White with his Kaos, and Bob Walker, who brought out his 35% Giles.

Unusually active for a Tuesday!  Must have been Spring Fever that brought people out...
