Well, sad day for me on Sunday. I did something dumb, blame it on the weather. It was humid and sweat was getting in my eyes. I was practicing slow flying and stalled it without enough altitude and it spum into the ground. Thankfully nose first straight in so the damage is not too bad and the engine is OK. If it went in at an agle, good chance of breaking something on the engine or smashing the wings. Only thing for the wings is replacing the aluminum wing tube, or fly with dihedrahl! Need a new cowl and windshield, which are on back order of course.




So question for those with this plane, what are you flying it with? I see a couple here who mentioned the engine. I might replace the FG-11 with something lighter to get a little more speed out of it. One of the reasons I lost it was not enough power. I had throttled up just as the right wing dropped, and if it were my Something Extra it would have pulled up and out, but I just could not get any airspeed.
