The OCMA Board of directors will be picking up the tab for the new tables. Thanks to OCMA for making OC Freaks feel welcomed.

Those are give away price gene. Nitro heli r cool, however I don't think I can affort 2-3 gallons weeky for it. My goal is only 1 nitro, I keep my 500 in my car and 600e at home. Beside, I live only couple block from AP. Most weekday, I am alone with whole field. It good to have 1-2 heli to fly around home.

after it's all sold I'll still have my Swift 16 and T600E for the electric side, the other 4 are all Nitros, 1 T600N, 2 R50's and 1 R30. I'm planing on getting the MSH Protos which is a 425mm Heli, same size as the T500.

Gyro has come a long way in very short period of time. The new owners are very much into Heli's and that's a good thing. I dropped by the other day and gave Jay the contact info for K&B so they can carry the tail blades. What I really want is Pauls Avro Blitz that he has sitting on the counter.

I'll prob. let 1 or 2 of the raptors go, and the T600E is on the short list for being up for sale. I'll never let the Swift go, that thing is 3 years old and was the best "Trainer Heli" I've ever flown. Once I have the nitros down to 2 or 3 I'll start saving for a 90.
If you guys are intrested in the stuff I have for sale better get on it quick the list is getting shorter..

Sound like windy this weekend. Btw, I am not able to fly in couple of days, have to help my parents running some business.
Look like sand is main enermy @ OCMA, the 20-30 mph winds have little or no effect on N9 fleet

Pictures of few founding members of OC Heli? I'm glad I changed plans last night and to come down on Sunday. I'll bring the ice chest with water and coke (the drinking kind and not the one to be used with rolled up $100 bill.) Long's new canopy looks ever better in person. Where my shavers are going to fit in?
