Default Capiche 50

CPLR flew his Synergy 140 3D numerous times at sandown. His dsiplays were great. It is capable of superb knife edge and pattern, and was great at low level 3d tumbles and torque rolls.
The one thing lacking from his flights was his landings. I think he broke 2 undercarriages(!) and after this, he complained to the organisers that the runway was too short. They promptly extended the length of the runway , only for cristophe to miss it completely on his next flight and land about ten metres short! Nice to see the best get it wrong sometimes! He had to resort to handlaunching his Synergy 140 and belly landing it. He also had his suxess biplane there, along with his majestic and synergy 90.
