Morrison Springs is Dead

I prefer flying...

"little tiny planes"

I like them all, little tiny, little, not so little.

I can't afford the larger variety yet.

I'm not sure if I'd call them planes, by any stretch of the imagination

The last one I saw him with, was assembled from popsicle sticks, a styrofoam togo box(surely from Sally's), and a motor he robbed from an electric toothbrush.

That was then, this is now...

I have added to my fleet several larger planes, a few that even make lots of noise, and run on liquid fuel.

I don't fly the togo box one anymore, it's home insulation that I fly these days...

You should fly around the basin and take a few aerial shots. That would be neat to drop in from above the trees at the boat ramp and then come towards the dock and then zoom up above the trees. If you mount your camera facing the side you can simply circle the area and keep taking shots of the area instead of having to dive at it. My planes are much larger (10' wingspan)

give it a shot. We might find something interesting. I bet if the water is clear it would look amazing down into the spring.

I did that over at Vortex. Very clear water, amazing videos.

I was waiting for them to open, to take my little camera plane in there, now I just want the water levels to recede.

I don't ask for much, do I?

Oh man, oh man, now that is just way to dang cool. Dangit guys I can't afford another expensive hobby. We actually have a RC airport right here in my area. I've got to go check them out. Thanks for the cool video.

Bumping Mike's Question -


Was there toay and now it says "No Scuba Diving". What gives?

 

[photohikedive]

PHD...

does it say " No Scuba Diving" at the bottom of the sign in this pic?

That's new... (and a change from them above saying it was ok to dive from the boat ramp area)

yup, it says it.

If you think about it, it makes sense, if you have a "designated" diving area, and they're going to kick boaters out of the basin, it is only fair to kick the divers out of the boat launch area.

Who wants to have to worry about getting a scuba diver tangled in their prop?

 

[bigken462]

But have they kicked the boaters out YET?

Aside from this thread turning into an RC forum (which is kind of interesting in itself), I would like to find out the status of diving the main Morrison Springs. Does anyone now if/when it is open?

 

[SuPrBuGmAn]

Its positively legal to dive it from a boat at this time.
