WACO 60
I've flown mine about a dozen times this fall - had a First of the YEAR fly-in 1/1 in upstate NY We look forward to being able to fly this time of yr. LOL Sometimes we just look out see wind and snow... and wish we were elswhere! Anyhow... on a gentle landing that day 1/1/04, landed was turning to come back and while turning around wheels colapsed backwards and one wheel pant puncured the lower wing... After inspecting you have to reenforce the bracket area or it will break. End of story... I love the plane other wise... fun to fly and very relaxing... Don't have time to build and love how the arfs have come a long way... seems most have problems with Wheel brackent area... I'm sure in time they will get that down... Myself I'm thankful for arfs.. I have some pretty planes that for the most part after a little tweeking... are very nice planes... I do feel some of the frustration... someime we wonder why they just don't take a couple more steps and make really awsome planes....
