Default RE: ParkZone P-51 Mustang RTF

Old Crow fell out of the tree yesterday. Its bad. I pieced it back together last night. Stuffed the crushed wing with kleenex and used packing tape to hold the mess together. STuffed a plastic grocery bag in the nose to "uncrush it". I had to use another gear box, and ALOT of packing tape. It looks bad. I want to have at least one more flight just to prove to myself that it will do it. The plane was wringing wet when I found it in the morning. Spinner is glued together. What a heap of junk. Shame, I have had this plane a long time. I figure I have wasted no money on the repair and this flight will be a "nothing to lose" deal. No matter what, Old Crow has served well, and made me proud. One last victory lap before retirement.
