This morning dawned still and overcast with the promise of lovely flying conditions. Happily things were still calm and settled by the time I arrived at the field, and I wasted no time in getting the Walrus into the air.
The Radjet is actually ready to go again, looking a little battered and worse for wear, but with the limited flying opportunities lately I wasn't going to risk wasting a lovely morning searching the paddocks for errant aircraft.
There was the slightest of breezes blowing and, despite heavy rain clouds forming in the east, no imminent threat of rain. To add more texture to the beautiful canvas of the morning, lighter cumulus clouds were framed by fringes of bright blue sky.
The calmness of the morning meant a worry-free flight, barring a close call with one of the flood lights, so low passes, slow flying and aerobatics at will were all on the cards. On one of the flights I also trialled cap-cam, the RD32 camera attached to the peak of a cap. It seemed to work OK so I'll have a look at the video this evening.
So, a lovely morning's flying and communing with nature...
