      Late day free-flight is always magical, especially in Geneseo, where it appears to be held in a dome of sorts, bringing calm to the field for the final 3 hours of light.More often than not, even if the day had been windy. We can fly past 9:30. Incredible.

    Came for the Coronado, stayed for the rest. I made peanut ff when I was a teen, 54 now, and so wish I knew all you guys. There was no one to fly with in CA where I was. I'm so happy to see balsa pilots having fun today like this somewhere.

    Everything I see of The Nats, indeed and especially The Flying Aces impresses on me a deep sense of cooperation and shared experience. It seems as though the competitive aspect of things is entirely subordinate to the shared joy of flight.. Indeed this is much more like a display than part of a contest, which I think is key to the unparalleled high standard we see from you guys converging on New York.
    These are all beautiful, I'm glad to see that blue racer with the long nose on the screen, v beautiful plane.
    Thank you Tom, and many thanks to all concerned! 🌟👍

    The flying boat is spectacular! Electric is such a game changer for planes like that. Unfortunate that it sounds like a bunch of angry hornets. EDF in a jet is great but it's just the wrong sound for a multi-engine radial ship. Otherwise great video as usual Tom thanks for sharing! (edit - I spoke too soon I think the Mosquito is my favorite in this video!)
