Tommy and LJ received an email from China from their Remote Control Airplane Model partner for www.flight-8.com. His name is Dieter. Dieter received the email from Franz, a friend of Dieter's in Germany. Franz related to Dieter that it is Carnival Time in Bavaria and shared a photo of some visitors Franz had arrive at his airstrip.
So, an email that started in Unterschleißheim, a town in Bavaria, Germany hops to Beijing, China and then on to Texas, USA. What a world, and a pretty one at that!

Ernie Werbiski shows Tommy the rigid styrofoam scale model he's working on for Tommy. This is a scale model of the upcoming BiG Toot biplane.
Also, we have a couple of pictures of Tommy doing some remote control wizardry.
The other fellow above is John Hatzenbulher,
the Constable for Double Oak.
He's gonna make sure that Tommy doesn't speed!
RC pilot Steve Hill strikes a pose.
Ernie was pretty comfortable when he was asked to have Tommy take a profile shot of him. Is that from experience of having your mug shot, Ernie? Just kidding!
Here's a 4-propeller helicopter in flight.
