Default New 3D maneuver THE CORN STALK ATTACK

Hi,
I came across a new 3D maneuver. You will need a beginner taking off. Next, the older 3D flier is flying his Funtana 90. The beginner does a roll and then inverted flight over the head of the Funtana pilot. The Funtana flier then becomes a WW2 submarine. The beginner then depth charges the Funtana flier by doing a figure 9. Upon resurfacing, the Funtana 90 has taken down about 12 feet of corn stalks all on it's own. Cool trick, but hard to repeat with the same plane. Anyone have a set of wings for a Funtana 90? The rest of my plane is fine, but now I have racing wings for the Funtana. Hanger 9's price on the wings is insane. You can almost buy the entire kit for the price of the wings.

Thanks,
Dave

LOL I've taken about that much corn with an inverted Telemaster.

My Funtana 90 with a Saito 150 in it ought to be able to take out a full 20' of corn.
But, I don't understand why the Funtana pilot made like a WW-2 Submarine. Wouldn't it have been better to become a turtle? Legs, feet and head in.
My neighbor will be planting corn next year and will give you a full report next year.

I bet that this maneuver could be perfected with a SPAD.

I know of a brand new set of wings.

Randy's Hobbies in Houston, Tx on FM 249 and Grant road.

He bought out another shop and he has a set of Funtana 90 wings, saw them last week, asked if I needed them.

Don't know a number off hand, however should not be hard to find.

Tell him Tony told you call. He will ship them.
