TODAY IS
Informal Fly-In at LARKS West
Winter flying in South Carolina!
A few of us showed up at Larks West on Sunday 12/6/2015. We even had a quadcopter make an appearance, but unfortunately we didn't see it make a flight. There were about 2 dozen + planes flying.
We had a twin experimental electric ducted fan, James Duke had his electric Habu, recovered in aluminum mylar, plus a host of prop driven jets.
There were trainers, 3-D electric and gas, 3 scale T-28 Trojans, one twin prop Dynam Grand Cruiser, and a powered glider, as well as a P-51 Mustang.
There was even 3 generations of the Jones' at the field. A great time was had by all!
Three generations!
How about these for a contrast in size! On the left is Matt Wheeler's behemoth and on the right is Jimmy Rhodes' tiny Pitts Special
