Your plane looks excellent Philly
Archie, incidentaly it was Philly,s web site that first got me into the C50.
Yippie, i like feedback glad to see my site is doing it's job.


i've got a moan on tho.. broke my spats again on a perfect landing on the short grass not enough bandage on the join line ( not sure there even is any ) and they shouldn't be cut so low.. infact i don't see why they come cut at all, surely it's upto the builder how low he wants them
for the price i expected something i could use more than just a few times. not only are they split down the center, but they've started to split around the washer that holds them in place. They have one more chance after i put some of my cotton bandage and epoxy in there to give them the right amount of strenght.

On the plus side, i think a guy here is sold on one after today's rough wind handling ( only me flying in the end ), so that'll be four here when Cartman and Steve get their ass's in gear.


heres some pics from today's very windy session
