Ron

For the month of June

0 days 0 hours 0 minutes 0 seconds!

but my start logging time is rapidly approaching!

I have a grand total of 12 minutes as of last weekend. Not doing to well here in the northeast. It keeps raining. I truly believe there may be a connection with planes and storm clouds. I certainly hope that things change in the next few weeks. Ken

Well, I managed to get out and fly War Dog on 4 days total.

Control Line: 27:25
Radio Control: 15:45

Three flights totaling 00:9:36.

Good stuff guys, looks like you are all off to a good start. Ian don't worry there is 11 months to go.

As for myself......Control Line 1 hour 2 minutes and 13 seconds. Not counting the 20 seconds the other day when I crashed the Bean:lol!:

Hey Guys.
I began flying for the contest on the first day that we were eligible to record official times. I decided to fly the "STIK" plane, as it is easy enough to fly, and handles the wind okay. I might move the engine to the Baby Birdie, as it is a nice flying plane, too. I used the "count-up" timer of the transmitter to keep the time while flying; that's a nice feature to have available. I logged every flight, and here is a picture of this month's time.I was suprised to see that I actually flew for that long! That is a lot of standing in one place! The total is: 3 hours, 17 minutes, 54 seconds. Onward to month two!

Well, I can see I didn't do as well as I thought I would. Total Flights=35 and Total Time=41min.-13sec. Counting run time only.
Nice job guys!

3 hours and 18 minutes?!?  

I'm only at 37 minutes. I guess I'll have to pick up the pace.

You're competing for the only prize there is: Bragging Rights.

The Humbled Mark

Nah, I love to fly. It's like crack cocaine. My heart pumps and my senses sharpen. Every successful landing is a little victory.

There are real prizes though.

I'm keeping the batteries charged! Hey, if I get too far ahead (smack-talk) I'll enter a different engine in the C/L category, and build some time there, when it isn't windy. How's that grab ya?

Ron- Are you going to list the reported time next to the pilots name above?

My flight time to date - 0:00.

 

Ok guys,

I am a little late, time to post your times. I had a whopping 2:23 for July. Surely you all can beat that.....

Ron

Yep, I got ya on that, Ron! The guys know when I come out to the field, they're gonna get an earful of COX! Drum roll...19 flights - 3 hours, 59 minutes, 5 seconds. I'll shoot a picture of my log sheet, soon.

Oh, this was R/C, so it really is apples to oranges. But, 2-1/2 hrs in circles? A guy could get dizzy, then! You're doing good!

Good job Doug!!!

Back to the top!

July 30
Three flights x 3 minutes = 9 minutes
Contest total: 00:18:36 (18 minutes, 36 seconds).

Is that 2 hours 23 minutes? If it's 2 minutes 23 seconds, I might have you beat. 

I had a bad July for cox airplanes. I'll try to remember to post my time tonight. Are you going to have running totals on this sticky?

That's the plan, although not everyone involved is posting times.

Yes 2 minutes and change......
