was invited out to a "local" field today. it was not a nice day to fly, but we had an itch that just had to be scratched. the weather soon brought us back to our sences though.
I asked the guys to look over the plane and tell me if any thing needed adjustment or any thing needs work. well some stuff did need to be worked on and that is good now. one thing about the engine, none of the dozen or so flyers at the field used abc type engines. I inquired as to why that was. they told me they didn't like them because they were not sute to the "dorking around" that we usually do at this field. appearantly ABC engines are suposedly only good for wide open throtle only, and not very well suited to the dinkin around type flying that these guys do(and what i want to do). so im thinkin of gettin rid of my abc engine and going with a .45-.50 OS RINGED engine.
The troubles a ABC can give you just don't seem worth it for a sunday flyer.
