Robert Campbell with his Goldberg Eagle. OS .46 AX for power. Robert is one of the recently soloed pilots and is improving at a rapid pace.

Stan Kromfols and his Falcon 56. Great flying trainer and Stan is doing well with it.

How many guys does it take to land a Falcon 56????

Don Mayden's Bobcat with Saito .80 four stroke. Brand new and unflown in this pic.

Jerry Davis and his hangar 9 P-51. Evolution 26 gas engine, retracts and all the stuff. Good flyer.

Greg Mariani and his P-47 Razor Back. G-62 power.

Harry Beck and his Ultra Stick. OS .46 AX for power; Spectrum Radio.

Tom Minger's Sealine .60. Built from a old Mirataka Kit. OS .61 rear exhust, tuned pipe. Jerry Davis launching. All balsa kit included the floats and the unique inverted vertical stab. Flys just like the 60's - 70's pattern ships.

Rich Speigle and his recently complete Platt Spitfire.

Marty Stein with his Sig Kadet. Marty has soloed long enough to have his first midair.
Lionel Perry carefully watching his new Thunder Tiger electric glider. New because the last one was midaired by Marty Stein........
Dick Belden and his scratch built Kaos with Supertiger for power. Great flying "old time" and one of Dick's typical flawless building jobs.
Tom Minger's 108" PBY. All fiberglass and foam construction. Two OS .91 four stroke for power.
Tom minger's PBY on its initial taxi out for the first flight. All went well (mostly). Wing tip floats retract.
Buzz Bussard and his Goldberg Tiger. It is a great flyer.
Alan Ross and his Wild Hare Yak 54. He uses a DA 50 for power. This is at the club meeting show and tell prior to its first flight.
Here's Alan flying the Yak 54. Plenty of power form the DA 50.
Just a few (really) of the Mike Belmont - Tom Richardi Air Force.
Ed Whittenberg and his new T-34 for the 2008 racing season. Note the, "No,  Bob , No" on the wing tip. A well deserved shot at Bob Pynenburg's penchant for midair collisions during the racing.
Stan Kromfols sea plane. Shot taken at New Hogan Resv., Wrinkle Cove. Sea plane flying every Friday morning with the GCF and Mountain Flyers Clubs.
Rich Martinez and his Extreme Stick 40
Glider towing operation. Tom Minger flying Jerry Davis' Uproar with a Supertigre .90 for power.
Jerry Davis' Cumic Glider sitting on a dolly getting ready to be towed by the Uproar.
Tom and Jerry getting ready for the glider tow. Harry Beck giving sage advice like, "get ready to run!"
The towing works great!                          
Larry Savail getting ready for the next step in his training program.
Here is Larry on the buddy box with Dick Belden instructing. Larry is making rapid improvements.
This is the GCF's "RC". Not Radio Control, but our Resident Coyote. He showed up at the field early in the spring, a mere pup. Not afraid of airplanes (or people), he has found a permanent position of "RGT" (Resident Gopher Terminator)......
