Chartersville and westwards ....

Wake up times have changed for me it is now 4:30am ... ahhhh. We had breakfast and broke camp and headed back down the road to the start . Starting was a bit of a problem .. sneaky winds and very calm, Mark decided to launch first as it gave me time to help and figure out slight winds after a few launches we decided to switch sides of the slight hill . After we moved around and set up it was geting on about 7;30 am another launch went bad and mark ended up breaking a prop no injuries ! After a quick run to camp and a new prop we were off again luckly... Mark weaved his way through the trees and circled upwards waiting for me to set up . I joined him and flew past Chartersville staying about 2000tf agl. Landing later around 11:30am outside of a small town . We spent the day waiting for the wind to die down and by 4pm were redy to go , the switching winds and light conditions were not favorble for mark to take off , camped in the cricket grounds after I put on a flying show for the locals ... it was nice evening ! Lots of mosquitos !!
