Well, its been a great weekend for flying here in PA. Loaded up the Twist 60, Giant PT 19, PA addiction, Typhoon, MS mustang (foamy) and headed for the field. There was a about 10 - 15 mph crosswind. Almost didn't fly, but decided the mustang would be first up. Not enough prop on it for the wind. Once the wind took it, I tried and to get it back, tried it until it became a small spec and just chopped the throttle. Should've told me something. No real damage. Next flight was with my GP PT 19. 26cc gaser that handles the wind pretty good. Flew great, nosed over though after landing. Wind got under the tail and just pushed it over, No damage done. Next flight was with the Twist 60. Tuned the engine, taxied out took off and it dead sticked as soon as I left the ground. Got her down harrier style level, but it folded the landing gear out. Looks like a low rider now. and nothing broke!!! Then I decided on one more flight with the PT 19. I knew before I took off that I should've just packed it all up. While coming in for final. I let her get too slow. Stalled BAMM!! cracked completely in half. Clean break though. Oh well, gives me an excuse to recover it, and something to do over the winter, definitely repairable. For the Twist 60, I've had it with the Super Tiger 90 engine. Never consistant it seems, and it's a real brick on the front of the Twist 60. Need to find another engine (smaller) for it I Think, something like maybe a OS 65 AX. Hope everyone else had a better day at the field.
