Status: offline 		it has been two weeks since my debonair flew with an instructor. I took it out today to the club and he wasn't there. I used to fly but it was 20 yrs ago. there was only one other person there and I decided to try it solo, I had my buddy cord on the trans for my oldest boy. I took it off and it flew so good, it did last time also. and he flew for the first time and did real good. then it came time to land, oh boy i havnt landed in 20 yrs, brought it in, then dead stick, it floated right in and it was almost a perfect landing. man it was all coming back to me. we made 2 more flights alfter that and it was great!!!

Good luck and happy flying,
Austin
