Wingz-n-Dawgz Leftovers

Remember the classic song, “At Last” by Etta James. Well, this was an “At Last” kind of day. We had the Wingz ‘n’ Dawgz flying event at last. After 3 years of trying to do Wingz ‘n’ Dawgz and getting weathered out each time, this time was near perfect. Wind was about 8 SE and the temperature was in the 80s until noon. We had a great turnout, including a pilot from Clinton and several spectator visitors.

LAFFS Flight Report- 28 June 2015

Wind was about 6 to 10 mph out of the SW, being a pretty significant crosswind, but no one seemed to mind.  Some members were there early and we were all done about noon. There were no crashes that I saw, so it was an especially good day. Some pictures from the morning are attached.... Read More
