Strip Hunting

Good friend of mine has a family ranch outside Hollister. We’ve been wanting to fly over and land there. Work took me over to San Jose recently, so I detoured on the way home to check out a landing site. Got some video.





Out and About

A fellow Rans builder flew his S6 ES II for the 1st time last weekend.  I was lucky to be on hand and take some pics.

On the way home, I mad a stop on a little hilltop in the foothills.  I love the ability to just put the plane down in random places.  It is a testament to the inherent safety of such a plane should it be an emergency, and not just goofing off.
