October 6, 2011 Glen Widman and Doug Bradford spoke to the Physics classes at Clear Lake High School in Lakeport about the physics of flight and model aircraft. On Saturday, October 8, the students were the guests of the Club at Chesley Meadows. Several club members were there to demonstrate RC flight. Paul Biehler made sure that anyone interested had a little time on the buddy box. Everyone seemed to enjoy the day. Ken Hook, the physics teacher, sent some photographs. Thank you, Mr. Ken Hook. Click to see the photos at: CLHS Oct 8, 2011 or the Photographs link above.
