A few hardy souls travelled up to the field to day only to find 4" of the white stuff already there - some of us just could not drive up past the gate while others made the journey with ease. Once we all arrived we were greeted by some magical blue sky's and picture postcard views. John F , Fred and Olly took to the air and entertained us all with some great takeoffs, touch and go's and classy flying - all with some suitable and generally un-helpfull banter and heckling from the rest of us - all of this was captured by Andy and Fred for posterity and hopefully the footage will appear late in a Club DVD for all to enjoy.

A few photos from yesterday in Roundwood – the weather was excellent, the pilots in flying form(excuse the pun) – no dinks or dongs to report just excellent landings throughout the day – we welcomed some old friends with plenty of tea, cakes, chat and craic. The bush pilot took to the air after his camouflage attempt and showed us how a bush plane should be flown - very impressive indeed – I am reliably informed that touch and go’s on the lake will be his next endeavor – lets hope there is not a big splash!!!

Definition of a Bush Plane

Today on the field we had an explosion of pilots with a serious amount of planes both extra large and very petite. The most popular plane flying today was the Bush Plane - we had 5 on the field today with lots of discussion as to what a bush plane really is - this debate went…
