Real Tippler flight time.

Sep
01

Hello everyone. How long did you get your kit fly this year and how many birds in the kit. I need some real time and there is not shame in posting the truth. I don’t fly small kits so mine was a kit of 14 birds and they flew 2:10. The birds were young and old ranging from 4 month olds to 10 year old birds. I hope you all had a great summer.

I let a kit of 4 out on Thursday it was lovely clear blue sky they were going for about 50 minutes I looked up there's one pigeon left flying so I assumed maybe a hawk had chased them and they went down to hide away . So I got the one remaining bird down
Sat waiting for there other 3 but they didn't show up . Thought there safe some where and will return next morning . Came home from work no sign and I haven't seen them since so unless a plane hit them I am really lost for answer's .

Thoughts on Joe

Oct

Mom was going through the closets this weekend and came across a box of items that was gifted me from the late Joe Kelley. A lot of Joe's items were more of a fetish on tipplers throughout Great Britain. He had a stack of maps that were survey maps of Macclesfield, Manchester, Sheffield, etc. He used to think that in studying the weather of these areas that he was going to learn something profound from the guys that flew in these areas. A lot of the papers were correspondence between him and librarians or others that had access to weather maps and terrain maps.
