Mark Scarborough hopes to have the repaint completed on his latest control line competition stunt plane to show next meeting.
Elmer Carlson, a new member, was introduced by Mark.
AJ Dahlberg and his son Cody joined at the meeting. AJ has a Butterfly trainer in progress. The airframe is nearly done.
The Polar Bear Fly In at the Mann Lake RC field in Lewiston was great fun with a turnout of eleven flyers. There was just a little snow (not enough to cover the grass). Lots of flying. Chili was served.
