It is very busy for me right now because flying season is in full swing. I want to start out this report with a submission from District XI Associate Vice President Mike Ingram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On May 2, the Wenatchee Red Apple Flyers in Wenatchee, Washington, held its annual Apple Blossom Fly-in, with Dave Moline officiating the event. The weather cooperated and there was little to no wind most of the day. There were all kinds of aircraft in attendance, including a couple of jets flown by District XI Vice President Phil Tallman. The event was well attended, with several out-of-area fliers in attendance. It was also nice to see local spectators taking in the event.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightboxPictureWrap\" href=\"https:\/\/openlightbox\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-cdn.dashdigital.com\/modelaviation\/august_2026\/data\/articles\/img\/101.jpg\" alt=\"wenatchee red apple flyers\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightboxPictureWrap\" href=\"https:\/\/openlightbox\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-cdn.dashdigital.com\/modelaviation\/august_2026\/data\/articles\/img\/101-01.jpg\" alt=\"wenatchee red apple flyers\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightboxPictureWrap\" href=\"https:\/\/openlightbox\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-cdn.dashdigital.com\/modelaviation\/august_2026\/data\/articles\/img\/101-02.jpg\" alt=\"wenatchee red apple flyers\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In May<\/strong>, I attended Joe Nall Week at Triple Tree Aerodrome in Woodruff, South Carolina. This one needs to be on everyone\u2019s list; it is the largest event of its kind in the US. I am always impressed with the new products and the flying demonstrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, I spent Memorial Day at Weaver\u2019s Airfield in Othello, Washington, which had great flying as always. Here are a couple of pictures:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightboxPictureWrap\" href=\"https:\/\/openlightbox\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-cdn.dashdigital.com\/modelaviation\/august_2026\/data\/articles\/img\/101-03.jpg\" alt=\"wenatchee red apple flyers\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a class=\"lightboxPictureWrap\" href=\"https:\/\/openlightbox\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-cdn.dashdigital.com\/modelaviation\/august_2026\/data\/articles\/img\/101-04.jpg\" alt=\"wenatchee red apple flyers\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, I attended the Northwest Scale Aero-Modelers Silver Hills Scale Rally spring opener at the Silver Hills R\/C Flyers club field in Athol, Idaho. It did not have the best weather, and the turnout was a little low; still, there were 18 entries. We got in four rounds by sheer determination.
