Arrowhead Stadium, 49 plane flyover



An amazing video that I wished the camera operator was able to zoom in on the radio control model airplanes.  Or had a friend to do that while he took the overall video that you see here.

LORCS Field gets a Update



The Lubbock RC Oddball Society is getting a face lift this Christmas season!

Ricky got himself a tractor and has been busy! From the pictures, one can see more dirt added to the "mountain with a tunnel in it." The "Ocean" is being dugged out. But next to the tank battlefield is a RC car/truck race course and that is located in between the north/south model airplane runway and the battlefield.

Plan is for a stand to be set up between the race track and the "ocean" for the models to watch their cars and or model boats.

Quarter Scale Nieuport 28 - Being Painted Now








This is the Nieuport 28 being painted by Tabitha Tinsley - age 14, who is also a radio control model airplane pilot. She is moving away from her trainer into larger models and the Nieuport was a gift from her father Patrick Tinsley.

She is in the process of doing a first class painting job as one can tell from these pictures that she and her father recently sent me.

When more pictures become available, they will be posted. Hopefully, this bird will take flight before the West Texas Warbirds event on August 6 & 7, 2011; in Abernathy, Texas.

They are basing the paint scheme on the American WW1 fighter pilot who had the first "shark's mouth" ever painted on a warplane I'm told. I will have to dig up the historical information and post that with this article at a future date.
