        Knowing that there might be some rain is expected I don't want to run my generator again in the rain due to moisture issues in the fuel system etc.
        So today I whipped up a rope less and tool less canopy for my generator.
        Got to love West Marine for their hardware and parts for a Bimini top.

            Tow plane folded a wheel but thanks to Sean for the one wheel landing and Len replacing the sheared bolts the plane flew again
            Going to be a great time!

                I'll be arriving Friday, will be camping at the field (sleeping in the Van, the sailplanes can have the tent). Hope to stay through Sunday. Looking forward so seeing everyone.

                    You had to be there to believe it. 4, 5, and I think 6 meter sailplanes off the ground in less than 3 feet of runway.

                    That Jim Dolly can fly a tug! Nuff said.

                        Pickup a dozen doughnuts in the morning Charlie and if you don't eat them you will have six pairs of spare tires

                              Hi Guys
                              Wow,
                              This has been a busy event so far, tons and tons of flying in ridiculous lift and even some eating too.
                              I had the chance to fly my Paritech DG1000 this weekend and I'm please to report its flying fantastic. I decided to remove the Up and Go unit along with all the associated parts and save over 13lbs.
                              The Bidule is once again stepping up to the job, towing the 82 lb DG1000 like a foamie.
                              Its great to catch up with all the Delaware guys and visit with so of the new pilots attending this year. Things here in DE seem to be on the rise.

                              Charlie showed up with a new tug this year, its a Hempel Super Cub sporting a DA 170 under the hood !!!

                              The BBQ feast tonight was once again over the top, SKSS style. Thanks to Charlie for getting it all together!!!

                              See ya in the morning
