ORIGINAL: 50%plane

I'm pretty sure he was. Did I mention that I tapped the rudder of my Funtana on the ground in a controled maneuver yesterday?
Once upon a time, I tapped the rudder of a model airplane on the runway. Of course the engine, fuselage, wings, landing gear, vertical and horizontal stabs and elevators got there first, but I really did tap the rudder. Only thing that was still recognizable after the smokin' hole was made. It's funny but a vertical dive at full throttle from about 350 feet with no radio control will do that every time. The Webra 91 must have been turning about 15 grand just before it hit. Some dummy flying an --- (oops I almost said ARF) (I hate it when that happens) turned on his transmitter without checking if the freq. was pinned up. It was.
