These are the real owners of the flying field.


Some work on the wind sock.


Someone asked me today why there were so few photos of helicopters on the BLOG. So Steve, here's a picture of yours.

Progress report on Colin -- Schalk Rabe

Colin took a walk down the road today, his stitches are out and the dressings have been discarded, so he is rapidly returning to full health.

Chris Freeman built and equipped an electric Sig Kadett Junior which he presented to Colin today as a get well gift from all the Vintage Flyers.

Needless to say Colin is deeply moved by this and can't wait to fly her!

A big thank you to Chris !

Best wishes,

Schalk, Jolene and Stan
