Jay Beasley retrieves his oft-repaired Foamy 3-D model. He commented that he will have to find something else besides epoxy to adhere the tail to the model since that's all that's left in that joint! The joint failed during a mild touchdown.
Bob Rose retrieves his gorgeous Lancair electric model after an extended flight. It didn't thermal but exhibited very slippery and fast flying. Bob reports that it speeds up very quickly when the nose is lowered. Beautiful model.
