Congratulations to Bill Leppard for winning the Scale competition with his PBY Catalina!!

Enjoy the pictures! Some are from Tim Pickett's site and rest were taken by Greg Cardillo (becaure my camera didn't have any film in it!).

This year's Super Raffle prize was a Global Raven mounted on a custom built single foam float. The Raven was powered with an ASP engine and used a Hitec Radio. Thanks to all the manufactures for their contributions and to all the club members who built the plane! (Next year we should have a ready to fly G&P Sales F-18 Hornet to raffle!)


Bill Leppard's 1997 Scale Contest winning PBY Catalina.


Vince Pettke's beautiful new Top Flite Cessna.


CD Darrell Watts' Air-Dale Beaver.


Planes, planes and more planes.


Even more planes.


Vince and Shirley Pettke flying at the same time??? No way!


Joe Hass' helicopter on floats (before the tail rotor failed, SPLASH!).


Graham and Terry Overton with Terry's 1995 Scale Contest winning Supermarine Stranraer.


Saturday night after flying was over, we were treated to a touch and go by a balloon!


It doesn't get any better than this!
