The camera could not cope with the low light handheld, we will try again though.

As always plenty of activity at Knockbain from the Heli Pilots. Here are a few photos of the goings on from the Rotary Rascals!

Ian does a few minor adjustments before a flight.

Do you want to know where I'm going to stick this!

Yes folks Barney does make the occasional mistake, I think the term is "Too low enough" !

Would you buy a used car from this pair?

Barney is determined to cut the grass before it needs it!

Heli Flying continues unabated and with more members joining all the time.

 

How low can Barney go?

     

I think that's low enough, no need to cut the grass just yet!

Again weekly heli flying continues with the usual suspects. A few pics taken by a visitor.
