Well...
Perry was AWESOME!
I was able to purchase the plane I was after. I wanted a WWI aircraft, preferably biplane. I wanted up to a .60 sized plane, but when I came across this nearly pristine Parkzone Albatross, I knew I found the one I wanted.
I could have, and maybe should have left then, but I was enjoying browsing the 1000+ tables filled with RC gear.
I've been looking for a smaller supercub like my quarter scale. The EFlite 25e is the one I've been looking for on Facebook Marketplace. They've been going for about $200 and up. There was one on a table for $150, I passed it by several times, but I finally asked if he'd take $100. He met me halfway at $125, SOLD!
And then I found some great deals on the FMS Rangers, I got a couple of the 850mm and one 1220mm that are all RTF.
I hope to get to the field soon to test them out! Unfortunately it will NOT be tomorrow, since I've been volunteered to go help with a wildfire situation at another state park.
Next Saturday is a no go for me as well, since I'll be hosting the annual Holmes County Trailblazer Trot 5k race at the park.

Hey Merv.
I was just sent to the one on Saturday. Last I heard it was contained and didn't look likely to escape. We had a slight drizzle of rain overnight, but not enough to do much to any established fires.
I am sure the fires down around Panama City are still quite dangerous, and any help last nights precipitation provided was lost as things dried back out today.
