Thermalling on The Meio

Sunday 19th May 2013 - Mark, Chris and myself arrived at The Meio to discover that there wasn't a breath of wind and Mark couldn't even keep his Mini Graphite in the air, and that'll fly in the merest of breezes so, Chris brought out his F3J 3m Experience Pro and bungee and we had some fun thermalling over the flatish grassy top of the common, each of us taking turns to have a go. My Whisper has a tow hook but unfortunately I had a soldered connection come away from one of the wing multi connectors.

Chris's new toy

Well Chris has managed to get his hands on Roger's (Cliff Hanger) Jedi Homebrew. This is an Airtech Jedi fuselage and wings made by foamwings.com. This video was it's maiden flight with Chris at the controls. I love this plane, I am so jealous!
