Last saturday a bunch of pilots gathered at the Rideau RC Flyers field to take advantage of an exceptionally warm & virtually windless day. I shot over 200 exposrures. Here's the best ones.

Hi Mike,

Hey thanks for snapping the pictures of my Funtana. It really was a beautiful day. I only wish the batteries would have charged faster so I could have gotten more flights in

Hi Mike,
Thanks for all the pictures. That was the best flying day of the year for me. Can you believe... I was wearing a T-Shirt most of the day and the Friday after we had a snow storm. There's been snow on the ground since.
Anyway... the "Somebody's heli" near the end is mine.
