Default RE: PICK ON KEN DAY - AGAIN

Bubba,
Yep, that was the one that I was asking you about a few weeks ago. He has the standard Zenoah G-26 on it. We had an interesting trim flight on it. On take off it jumped off the ground and almost stalled. Flying too about half of the down stick to keep it in level flight, and we almost didn't get it back to the ground. Back in the shop showed the top wing had about 15° positive incidence. Couple of days of looking showed that the outer struts were labeled wrong. The arrow that point forward was on backwards. These pics are from the second trim flight on it. Man, what a nice flying plane. Drool, drool, slobber, slobber, I want, I want!!!! But since I just ordered the G-38 for the Decathlon yesterday I know that I have to wait awhile before getting another big plane!!
