Outdoor Season Finale Nov 2
Tempus Fugit, gang! Yep, time sure is flying, just like one of Steve E’s Pinkham Stick models. Next Saturday Nov 2 will be your last chance this season to fly outdoors on the beautiful rolling fields of Woodsom Farm in Amesbury, MA. Don’t miss it!
The event roster has been slimmed some, but we’ll still be filling the sky with stick & tissue models. Check out the full Nov. 2 Meet Flyer.
See you at the field!
October 20 Meet Results & Pics
Gorgeous weather, good friends and lot’s of high flying models – what more can a flyer ask for? How about a bunch of great photos to help remember it all?
Thanks for sharing John & Kim!!
Pinkham Stick was arguably the event to watch with several new models and light-hearted competition. Steve E kicked it off with a one minute flight on his new Troubadour in the calm morning air and then upped the mark to 100sec plus soon after. Kim W got several nice flights with her Rocky-piloted Boxy Bipe. Then in the thermally afternoon Rich Z popped off a 2min plus flight with his Gabelschwanz Teufel (Fork-Tailed Devil) which unfortunately ended with the model 80ft or so up in a majestic pine tree. Steve countered late in the day with his Pelatowski Stork, catching a thermal and going OOS (out of sight) into a cloud. But alas, he forgot to start the stopwatch! Gremlins were surely riding Stork’s wing on its last flight! And it was the FT Devil for the win.
One thing’s certain. There’s a lot of flying smiles per build time invested in these simple Pinkham Stick models. Why not join in the fun?
There was lots of action in the other competition events as well. Steve E’s Hellcat took the top spot in Dime Scale again and his Mad Maxine (biplane, n’est pas!) topped the Embryo Endurance field. George S’s Nassise Mustang edged out the Rittmeister’s Henschel 123 to win the WW2 Mass Launch event. George’s Guillows Fairchild 24 won the Golden Age/Modern Civil event too.
Rich Z’s wretched Roland D2 wreaked havoc winning the WW1 Mass Launch event. His silky smooth flying Ercoupe also won FAC Simplified Scale – the meet’s premiere competition event.
Sam B and Ara D made the trek from out-of-state to fly with us. It was great to see you guys. We sure did have FUN!
