Great looking shot of the Huey on the runway at the Bayside field. |
Another shot of the right side of the Huey. |

Turbine power is quite addictive. Once you see the Huey start, take off, hover around then fly off
it becomes a new challenge with each new scale project to see if the turbine can be fitted. Some scale
fuselages fit better than others, but as time goes by we hope that the scale model turbine engine will
continue to develop and become further miniaturized.
One of the truely satifying aspects of this hobby is the non stop development of new technology. The
turbine Huey simply was not feasible in the 1990's. Now its a reality, albeit an expensive one. I am excited
to see what the future will bring us in smaller turbine engines.
