RLDIII, HAHA. That is so true about the LNCand the light poles. Always nervous on landing approach

Yesterday I flew for the very first time. I was pilot and had a friend with me to help with fueling, starting, etc. Did a barrel roll my first flight (so what if it was an accident!!) and landed ok, woohoo! Got to do some more rolls, inverted flight, low fly-bys near the runway (we were the only ones there so...I figured what the heck ). Today I took the plane out again, big pro that I am, and totally messed up my first approach, turned left, tried to correct and accidentally went left more, and to top it off, I applied left rudder, all from 10 feet off the group and above 2 foot high grass What a mess. Wasn't terribly high speed but it was enough to rip the firewall and engine out of the plane. Some spare balsa, glue, and some time and I'll be back in the air tomorrow.

I am soooooo hooked

I appreciate the time all of you spent replying to my request, thank you. Just got my AMA membership today and hoping to talk to the local clob here.

Just curious RLDIII, do you still live in the Norman area?
