    Hi Friends! Stay positive! Stay Safe! Keep your chins up!
    We got a chance to fly the DCU Dragon Fly again. What a sweet little bird! Got a bit more comfortable with it and did some aerobatics. Hope you all enjoy the video.

    Thanks for sharing part of California with us. As of today we are in lock down in the UK. No more model flying for a while, unless l can justify walking whilst flying it! As we are allowed to go out for exercise once per day. Take care.

    That was Awesome Ali! Way to shred the slope at that special undisclosed place. I was flying my fabric aircraft just down the way on that same day. It got even better as the day progressed.
    Nice job by your camera man. Well Done!

    I used to own and fly a dragonfly. I flew it off of Long Beach bluff (near 2nd street?). It was my first aileron slope plane. I didn't know how to do rolls and I tried doing my first roll, over at the hill in Playa Del Rey behind Layola Marymount College (before they built condos there). I used to really like that Layola Marymount hill... Started the roll and lost orientation and panicked and pulled up while it was upside down and within a split second, it went into the ground and shattered. Such a shame. It was such a nice plane. I stopped flying after I almost hit someone while I was landing at Long Beach. Freaked me out. Thirty years later I'm getting back into the sport after being bored and looking for something to do during the pandemic. It's good to be building and flying again. Right now I'm flying powered Crash Test Hobby wings (Pinata, Vertigo and Titan) over at Field of Dreams Park in San Pedro and Long Beach El Dorado Park. My plan is to do some slope soaring over at Yorba Linda/Chino Hills State park glider hill.

    I guess one good thing is less smog huh? Nice vid. No slopes here in Maryland so I enjoy watching from a distance. Stay healthy... PS I subbed. I love watching your F5J planes. Unbelievable how you can keep them going in teeny thermals.

    Great flying, and a fabulous soaring site. We were due to come to LA in September, and would have loved to fly. But with the second spikes of Covid in June, plus the race riot problems, we chickened out I'm sorry. Keep the flying vids coming guys, I love em 😃 Keep healthy, keep safe. Dave W
