When I do go slope flying, it is almost always over water - the Pacific Ocean. My favorite spots to fly are Kahakuloa and Kapuna. If there was a problem, most of the time the wind will blow the plane back toward the slope and the plane will not end up in the water...but smack against the rocky face of the slope <grin>

The trip had nothing to do with flying BTW, so naturally I brought a slow flier to play with in the morning the wind was nearly none existent do I took my little plane down to the beach. I flew for a short while and enjoyed it allot. So, I'm wondering what's so attractive about flying over the water? I had no aerobatic capability and couldn't do any stupid foamie tricks yet, I had a great time. I can only blame the environment of flying over the water. Now I'm wondering what it is that holds so much allure about it Bill Swingle Janesville, CA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
