Taken with Mini 3 Pro.

Nice. A speed run into (or out of) the sun might be cool. Or are you far out with the Mini and might lose signal if you went low?

Single on the mini 3 is pretty good, so I can go in low here from the carpark just fine.

One would never know your day was turning to rain.

So you could fly the Avata there...

No rain for me today yet - nice golden sunrise though

Lovely. Not today's sunrise then?

Windy on my end, so I guess everyone has issues with weather

Thanks,   we had a little reprieve and then it came back in the evening,  but I got to fly two more avata 2 flights.

Yes,  No problem to fly that there.   Although I haven't flown the avata in low light yet.

It should have stopped here,   but we have time SWMBOd is still snoozing.

Yes, same situation here.

I thought Id heard movement,  but I think it may have been a dream.

I should be OK for at least another hour.
You haven't used that alarm again, have you?

Not at weekends,    I value my life too much.

You're most welcome.  Always good when you can squeeze a few flights in.  Great weather here today so after lunch I'm going to take the jetski out and run through a tank of gas.

So a 10 minute ride then.

Actually, much longer.  At wide open throttle it will last 30-45 minutes.  At cruise speed it will last 60 minutes easily.

Thats better than I thought,   or you have a huge tank.

Large tank.  I did have a bit of bogging on power a couple of times so I'm taking it in today to get the fuel injectors cleaned and to get a general tune-up while it is in the shop.

At this point Id ask if you are using quality fuel,  but I know you better than that.

Yes, you are right.  I'm a stickler for using quality fuel and I'm always careful where i get my fuel from.

I guess that one thing we are lucky here with,  you rarely get bad fuel,   although the odd petrol station will get contaminated tanks occasionally.

I wish they required more than an annual tank test here.  I guess the state just doesn't have enough employees to certify tanks and pumps more than once annually.
