No problems, will bring it down on Saturday :) I really wanted a P 47 anyway ;)

Hahah,,, Um yeah. The one plane that I really don't want to (and won't...) I could of sold 3 times over.

Now, that sounds like plan.

I will be there for Trojan class if I'm not required to work. Will be with Trojan... or similar sized and powered GeeBee R1 just to be different ;)

Poo... have to work this sunday.

Still keen. Probably won't have maidened my FF Corsair by then, but still up for the 1 meter jalopy race.

Ah poop. Everyone else will be down in Melbourne for the trade fair so guess who is manning the counter sunday. Mmph.

'shoot'n, Tex :D

Hmm... if there is someone there to let me in I should continue with my plan to maiden the Gee Bee racer tomorrow... Gotta see if it's all that before the big date.. Anyone bringing a Trojan that w...

My Great Planes Gee Bee turned out to be pretty slow, so I'll go Trojaning. If I wake up... lol... Run up to Metford tomorrow that might end up being a bit late.

Poo.

Yeah... I got one fly in soon after I got it, but my then inexperience led me to a low altitude tip stall and a broken prop adapter. Fast forward to 3 - 4 weeks ago at the field... Followed the instr...

Mine was in the first batch to hit Australia.

It was a bit of a procession. Close racing is not always good entertainment (F1 *cough*)

For your entertainment.... A week a go I was in Tasmania and had my first fly of a 4ch plane, a Escale Electroglide. The first flight was a bit shaky and ended in a low altitude stall. I learned when...

More Tasmanian stupidity... :leet: Including a nice bit of on board footage of what happens when an Electraglide and a Bixler meet mid air.... Language warning on the soundtrack later in the pie...

Yep... That's the Electrogide I told you about that I handed on before I snapped it in half :D

I'll have my video camera ready. Serious.

I will, one day...

Yep... That's what I thought... But I'll be flying my little Hobby Zone Champ for a while yet, no matter what the Phoenix sim tells me. Even though we have "proper" planes hanging in the shop, the she...
