Back in the Air
After a 8 year break I am back in the air. After renewing my AMA membership and joining a local club I am back flying.
Last weekend I flew my traininer sucessfully three times. The first time I was all nerves but the thumbs came back to me. Greased three landings! Wow I could not belive it! I guess it is like riding a bike as in you never forget.
Today I took along my Easy sport 40 (with an ASP 61 engine) along with the trainer. Flew the trainer three times and then took up the Easy sport (tail dragger configuration) and flew it. The old bird still flys good but I need to remember the stick movement for certain stunts.
I forgot how much fun it is to stand out in the sun and fly. Next will be to pull out the Tiger 2. Need to put a few flights in the ES40 a few more time until I pull the Tiger out.
I just want to say thanks to Jeff at MMRCA for his help and the club in general.

oh I still like the smell of burnt glow fuel.

RE: Back in the Air
Glad to hear that you're getting out and burning some castor oil once again, Thumprding! I also would like to compliment your taste in aircraft, the Tiger 2 and the Easy Sport are two terrific sport planes.
