First trip to the Flying Field in 2021.
Lovely weather yesterday Tuesday the 8th ,so it was great to get out and do a bit of flying. Broken Wing also attended as did Pete and Trev . The latter pair were observers only but were available for advice and humour which was readily given when needed. Slip has obviously done an excellent job with the field, the grass looked superb. My planes the Trainer and the Flair Cub were bought for very cheap prices (Cub £14) and both needed a fair degree of refurbishment. The Trainer had flown once before but suffered a detached aileron on landing and the ancient Cub was due a Maiden flight. Broken Wings planes flew well but the switch on the blue biplane (Name?) failed fortunately before it took to the air. With Broken Wings assistance all my planes flew OK but the Cub which flew the best in the moderate wind, suffered 3 'Dead Sticks' the last Upwind and the subsequent heavy landing caused minor damage which I have partially repaired this morning.
