(A work of fiction)

For the first time this year, WIMAC held a spring fun fly last week-end. Despite the conditions, our members, living in their usual world of denial, made the best of our flying field and had a great day.

André , boasting a spiffy new outfit, was as efficient as usual, taking care of security and maintaining order in the parking lot..

Humidity made the runway hard to negotiate, lots of power was required for take-offs.

And some landings were hard on the planes.

As usual, food was served, and may thanks go to the cook who had to work and prepare in difficult conditions !

Many airplanes were there to be seen, lots of scale models.

There was the inevitable crash, and resulting search party, but the plane was finally located, with the usual light damage caused by our outfield.

While the search was going on, visitors got to admire the runway display, which was impressive, with little or no room to move.
