You can have a lot of fun just watching all the flights. And our annual picnic always has a good turnout.
Rod receiving the "Schafer Cup Trophy" from presenter Richard Freed.
Here is one of the aeral shots that David Grumbine took at R&R 8. Check out the link at the bottom of the page for more.
The payoff!! Al Garcia paying off Richard Freed the $60 he won in the 50/50 raffle.
Look at that rocket go! Some times after a good launch your neck can really hurt.
Here is Todd Wuclevich's rocket powered glider taking to the sky again. It's always amazing watching Todd fly his glider. He can make it do many different types of stunts.
Here is a another close up shot of the glider under boost. Most flyers lose control at this point of the flight, but not Todd. He always has a nice boost.
Here is another one of Todd's rockets, the LOC 4, flying on one of his old G-200 motors. I am really surpised I got this shot, since this one really left in a hurry.
