I participated in my first Omahawks charity event this year, the 26th annual Labor Day Airshow. A great way to display some RC as well as raise money for the Make-A-Wish foundation. Here’s some news coverage from the event from a local station.

I also was segment leader for their first foam Combat! event. After cutting kits, selling some, as well as sending out the plans to fellow members, we had around 10 planes in our small little segment. That’s what you hear about the ‘Nice looking combat event’ in the KPTM news video.

Unfortunately… It was a VERY windy day, and with a lot of planes at the show grounded because of the wind (gusts of 30+ followed by rain), the combat event was a success in that we got most of the planes up and kept most of them flying through the wind for the time being, but alas, no contact like we normally see on our up-to-this-point more calm Monday casual combat period. Ah well, perhaps I’ll try and get a foamie Combat! event or two on the Omahawks club calendar next year.
