Boy Scout Day-2004

Owen Dwire gives the Scouts a briefing on how an airplane flies, and 
tells them how the model is controlled by our radios. 

The Scouts were obviously interested in Aviation and radio control models, 
if the turnout is any indication!

The weather wasn't the best, but the cloudy sky sometimes makes the 
model show up better. It turned out to be ideal, as it was a very comfortable 
day for flight training. Owen Dwire (left) helps a Scout on the buddy box.

Owen did a demo flight to show the Scouts what kind of maneuvers could be oreforrned
with a Radio Controlled model aircraft.

I think he had their attention!

Even the Scout Masters got a chance to try their turn with a
model.  Here, Owen Picket assists on the buddy box.

After the flying was over and everyone had a chance to experience
flying a radio controlled airplane, Owen conducted a question and answer session.
