Default RE: World Models Super Chipmunk 90

Today I completed the things I had to work on the Chippy like installing Jose', my pilot ( i just named him ) and sealing the seams on the Thouglong covering.

Yesterday I said I was going to be done by noon today, what do you know I was done by 3 pm just 3 hours pass the planed completion time.

The day turned out OK here in the bay area so at that time I decide to venture to the field, around 1/2 hour drive, when I got there I found one member already packing to go home, right away I put my airplane together, gas it and got ready to start the engine when I remembered that I had the glow igniter charging at home [:@], my solutions was to use the mini glow driver that I installed on my fuel box a few months ago, but not having the extension for the glow plug I had to dig into my field box to find a pair of alligator wires, I got the engine going with that [&:]

I got the range check done so it was time to fly her, on the first flight, well you have to see the video, I will post it soon ( working on it )
