The traveling every week, living in a hotel and just the stress of not being home brought out some very interesting behavior in all of us. One thing we did to relieve stress was to get involved with R/C models. Below is a video of one of the flights of my TREX-450. I’m not sure, but I would bet a parking lot is probably not the best place to learn how to fly an R/C Helicopter. I did manage to crash a couple of times, but at least I avoided everyone’s cars. Thanks for the good times my JPL friends!!!  I am really surprised in the trust of my skills that Josh and Alex had :-)
