Extra 300 cartwheel/video
Sometimes depth perception is EVERYTHING....runway wasn't quite as wide as it looked.

No more crashes here than at any other field with over a hundred members,...just that there is usually someone with a video camera in his hands here catching a few of those crashes on video.

Sheeeeshh....
Your video camera brings bad luck....
be sure to leave it at home when i'm there,
wait a sec... you might as well stay home too i'm not sure if its the camera or you..
Lights, Camera, Crash'em .....
p.s. I love'd the voice over when the old man was walking out to the plane.... "Fizzzzle Fragggle Grrrrabble Figggle"

I'd like to take credit for the video....but for a change, another member of the club caught that one... I just did the editing.
And actually, its "Sassa frassa fricken fracka"

The crash didnt look to bad at all. My guess is you lost a aileron ........But depth perception is one of the reasons I want a small low wong before moving on to a semiscale low wing. I hope the repairs were'nt to extensive.
VERY NICE PLANE AND FLYING AREA ! .

It looked like you were out over the middle of the runway to me, until you hit the dirt, lol. Really nice plane though, is that the Patty Wagstaff 300S?

I missed the runway that way once. Found out that my prescription glasses were way off. Now I crash for other reasons. Have you had your eyes checked lately?
