Hay Hardover Bud!!

Yea, want one cause I can see some real possibilities with this thing after looking closely at the thin wing section. Needs some minor mods, like Chopping and sectioning the fuse in about half, removing top wing for additional drag reduction and a little streamlining. There seems to be lots of engine room, so how about a OS 91VRDF, got to find a home for one of these things sitting on the shelf gathering dust. The Jett 90L is still sitting in the Alley Cat. I fly that when I want to do some faster than normal pattern flying. Anyway, wish you a great Christmas and new year. Santa is bringing me a Q-40 Miss Ashley to go with the Jett 60 LX rumbeling in the cabinet. No doubt I can get her up and scooting with no problem, but sooner or later, gonna have to land. Hope it will slow down something like the Q-500 & can deal with it. Gonna stuff another 90 OS VRDF in a Q-500 this winter just for grins and a conversation piece. ENJOY and get the sholder working well. Had to have 7 teeth pulled yesterday, but don't much give a hoot as long as the Dr. keeps me in Vicodin, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

We may be on to something here. Some of our best work here comes from being in pain.[sm=cry_smile.gif]

I think I put a quarter in one of those at Walmart. Should have just gotten the gumball.
BTW, the fan guard is preventing Darwinism from working...LOL

Speaking of Darwinism. My kid puts in a request for a couple things for Christmas. I have no idea what it is so i ask, "what is it?" He tells me these things are used for mountain climbing. (He's a wanna be and does not do it much.) I ask if he has a helmet. He says no. I said well I'll buy you one right now. He says nah thats okay, don't need it. I feel like Bill Cosby with this being my 3.9 GPA kid in his 4th year in Mech Engineering and has the common sense of a plastic bag.
