GrahamC Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I thought I should share this photo..... This is why its good to have youthful members! Some excellent tree climbing at our field today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbycat Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Nice on! We're lucky at our field. It's in the midle of a couple of hundred acres of open farm land. The nearest trees must be over 1/2 a mile away. Mind you we do have rape on 3 sides of us at the moment. If a plane goes in to that it'll take hours to get it back if you can even get through it. Go on, ask me how I know Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben B Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Tell me about it I ended up tree climbing to get my Blade 120 SR back. It drifted in the breeze, I got confused regarding orientation (so ended up flying away from me). It ended up landing in a tree in the grounds of my old primary school so like a naughty school kid I ended up climbing over the fence to get my helicopter back- I felt about 5 years of age again. I was just waiting for Mrs Scrivener (my old headteacher to call out my name). Then the police car cruised past. Luckily I hid behind a recycling dustbin and they drove off Happy days.

Turbycat Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 One of the lads bought a beautiful looking small electric SE5a to the strip a couple of weeks ago. All the yellow flowers had gone so it was nice and green. That small SE5a is still in the field somewhere. The farmers pretty good though, He'll keep an eye out when he's cutting and get in touch if he finds something. Think he got 3 or 4 out the other year. Hope he finds my sunglasses that came out my pocket when I was retrieving one earlier this year Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Keene Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Ouch! I did the very same last thursday, and my Wot4 is still flying as the only Union Jack in Copenhagen, stuck 10m up a willow tree... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
