Stuff happening.

At the end of the street that connects with the main road someone had run off the road and smacked a small cypress cracking it at the base and causing it to lean over. It's still alive. On the same property Friday night someone drove off the road and got stuck  about 100 feet from the cypress. He called a friend and that guy pulled him out, right across the lawn leaving 100 feet of deep ruts in the lawn. One of the perps. was found at a car wash and didn't have insurance so the truck was impounded. The property owner has no recourse but to fix his lawn himself.
  The flying circle at the park has been torn up in favor of a parking lot. I've found a new place to fly and the club may have a place at another park on grass. I flew there today. It's the same place that we found the kids that were left after their parents were murdered in the woods very near by.
 I covered the Fazer and made a mess of the fillets. I whipped up some gooey stuff and covered the mess. It's a lot nicer now. Maybe get it painted this week.
 I tried a different style handle to fly the planes with today. Zero overhang. It worked very smooth. I made a change to it putting the line clip so the overhang is less than a half inch.
Still waiting for the right motor mount to come in for the rescued plane.
