No Rain & Warm..!

Flying Heaven..!
The plane is a stick .40 with an OS .55AX. The camera
is a cheap camera and is a screenshot from the video it
was taking. Not quite a U-2 but along the same lines.
Best, Keith

Dear Club Members: Jim couldn’t get me his message from the President to me before this acclaimed and
internationally respected rag went to press—So, I thought that you would all enjoy this internet message
forwarded to me by Paul….So, enjoy. And we’ll catch up with Jim later.
Yes, Jon and Dan did meet for the first time at
the time of this photo, and of course, they “hit it
Off” right away…
But seriously, at our last meeting, this incident
And several other crashes touched off a very
Lively and animated discussion of flight
And spectator safety at the field. Several years
Ago, a spectator was killed at the DC/RC field.
We all felt at the meeting that this is a very
Serious conversation that needs to continue...
Jon Pentzer Meets Dan Reardon…!
