My good buddy mtymyk took this video for me today. My X5 battling 20+ mph gusty winds. What a friggin blast! Thanks for a great video Mike!
Watch full screen in HD and turn up the volume to hear the wind howling!

Skillful flying in challenging conditions. Flying in a posted No Trespassing area is a nice touch!

Nice flying! I love my x5 in the wind.
I loved the no trespassing sign. Classic ;)

LOL, everyone gives me crap for flying there, but its a 5 acre vacant lot that no one uses, right behind my house. Mike and I had some good flights today and then some homemade Italian grub my wife cooked up for us! Yum yum!

I know what you mean...and technically your not actually trespassing as you didnt set foot on the property. You only using the air :D well, i doubt its that simple in respect to the law, but you can claim ignorance

I claim ignorance all the time, but I still have to empty the dishwasher even if I don't know where anything goes! :D

Nice flying Caralmar. Show Mike what that X5 can do in gusty winds. I won't be surprised if he will buy his own X5 someday and live in Florida too, lol. Flying 365 days a year.
BTW. What ever happed to the complaint you had before - about flying in that area?

Lol, I can't leave "Team Brampton", are you crazy Joel!!! Plus, I spend enough flying half a year, 365 days would make me broke, and more than likely divorced:rotf Maybe I can convince Carlos to move to Canada:wow2:
And nice flying as usual Carlos, and thanks for the good chow:thumbup:
Nice flying, Boynton huh, I got a buddy that lives down in FL right near there. I go down once a year for a golf trip. We hit Winston Trails or The Links first day then spend the weekend at PGA national.

Look me up next time you come down if you want to fly a few packs. I love PGA National. When I was a kid, I lived in Palm Beach Gardens and had a pizza delivery job. I was in/out of PGA National every night at least a dozen times. That place is immaculately kept. Unfortunately, it has been hit by the foreclosure nightmare that has impacted so many Americans, and disproportionately here in Florida and other hotspots around the country. I read an article not too long ago about the high rate of foreclosed homes in PGA and how it was impacting the property values for everyone else. It is still a magnificent place and will always remind me of my youth!
