Well I flew my J3 on skis today,I managed to get one flight in before my onboard glow batteries went down,I guess they didn't like the cold much at -10C.Had fun anyways.The location is the 3rd line airstrip here in Sault Ste Marie.There are only a handful of full size types here;3 Challengers,1 T-Bird,1 Jodel,and one Cessna 140.We fly on skis here in the winter with our Challengers so its a pretty good spot for r/c planes I think.Would have been better if the runway was packed today but at least I got one flight in..
