Default It was our Pleasure

Hello Buck

It was great meeting you, and taking you around to the flying fields. We will be more that happy to have you over again.

Well I remembered my start equipment today and got in a flight with the F-15 but broke a gear, ( Needed to change to Robostruts anyway) Woddy and I flew our F-15s in formation and it was great. Woody had his J-600 humming right along in his Avonds F-15.

Next was the F-16. (Yellow F-16A) Man that thing flew great! The grass made for an interesting take off run, But after it broke ground it was off to the races! Good vertical, but as it got too fast the pressure or vaccum inside / outside the fuse caused the top hatch to pop open even with a 64 rubberband holding it down from the inside! Any way Woody flew great and the hatch was a non event as when he slowed down the hatch popped back down. He made a great landing.

Good flying m8!
