Many thanks to Mike and Jeff for setting this up last Saturday. There were 10 registered flyers, nearly all, except me, with NATS rated skills. The Hangar was a bit cool in the AM but sun shine warmed it fast. I had little trouble with the few ceiling obstructions. Only my Dayton-Wright Racer No-Cal, from Mike Welshans' plans, would go that high. I got a repeat of the 80 second flight I made with it at the usual Bong Eagles' indoor Category II site, Racine's Memorial Hall. I saw a lot of good flying from the other folks with F1L's and the like scraping the ceiling for what looked to me like long flights. The 140 mile ride from Wheaton, IL, for me was worth it.
