[Lvas] Monthly Observer's Challenge - M-13

[Fred Rayworth]

Wow! Nice photo and you can clearly see the propeller in the lower right. Great job!

 

Wish it had come sooner, as I already put out the report. If you are going to work on M-27 (the July challenge), send it to me before the end of July and I'll be sure to include you.

 

Thanks,

 

Fred
