Tom,

Oh boy, a Storch plan, that's something I might get interested in making. It sounds good too that a small engine would work alright. Maybe that means a small 4 stroke would be good for it. ha

Did you see what Don said above about pie and his lunch menu?

If I had to make the choice between pork loin and pie I would definnitely pick the pork,,,,,, first! ha

Today at the airport it was too windy to fly. We fueled up the Eagle anyway and I taxied around the runway for a while, just for the practice, until suddenly the plane got up-ended in the tailwind. There was slight damage to the skin on the tail and the prop was pitted. Time for an iron down and a new prop.

I'm thinking of looking around for a real cheap RC car that I can use for taxi practice. I need that a lot. I'm doing much better in the air than on the ground and a low budget car would save uncalled for damage to the plane.

Funny thing, when the plane was to my left and turning on the runway and was turning to the right , at a certain distance, the plane looked as if it started turning to the left, when actually it was still going to the right. I know it was just optical illusion. I took the plane down the runway in the other direction and all looked as it should have. The vertical elevation was a bit different and the light was a little different. That's never happened while flying. Oh well.
