Title: great day sunday oct 21st!

A good crowd at the field today, a bit wet underfoot, but warm and the forecast wind did not show up. A lot of flying and something new: dogfighter racing!

I was wondering when you would see this Frank. This is so much fun! We think that they are about 100 mph or so... plenty qyick to try and keep them within the tree line. The Strykers seem slow now. LOL its always fun to try something new.
