Someone that was flying this past Saturday lost the fin from their I.F.O. I remember seeing a red I.F.O. flying about, but I don't remember whose it was. Anyway, if you are in need of an I.F.O. tail, please contact Chuck at - indyrcpilot@comcast.net

Anyone headed to Beech Grove today? The roads were not that bad last night, but I'm not sure what they are like now since the wind has come in...

Here is a fun picture of Chuck's bug hanging out on the ceiling. He seems to think it's safer up there...

It was a lot of fun today. My Bug didn't loose too much weight, and what it did loose, it was able to recover. Thanks to Duane for finding the pieces. I also owe Bill some thanks and a new prop. The hard floor was not so forgiving to my prop and I did not bring a spare in my rush to leave the house. I did score some points tho... as I landed my Bug in the Basketball goal. I wish I had taken a picture of that as it was a good laugh had by all.

Eric, Thanks for posting the photo and video - VERY cool!!!  I ended up going in to work after flying and didn't get home 'til after 11pm. So, I haven't really determined how much damage was inflicted. I do seem to remember a certain red and blue striped Bug nearly taking off my landing gear.  Chuck

I was here and no one was around. The gym was taken over by a bunch of teenagers. Was today cancelled?

I just talked to John Gaither... They're there and flying. I'll be there in a few minutes.
It doesn't start until 1pm and runs to 4pm.
