Default RE: KMP PITTS 12

I think that came out awesome. The black Carbon G Spinner really sets it off. I can't believe it comes in at about 16 lbs.

Went to the field to fly my Twist. The Magnum 52 isn't broken in yet so I came in deadstick.
I was running it on the safety bench when a small wind nosed it over into the bench.. By the time I got to it the 10-8 prop became 8-8 prop. and was burning into the wood like a router. What a riot. Then I had linkage problems with the throttle so I packed it in while it was in 1 piece.

I again working on the Pitts tonight. I am going to glass the front fuse by the engine mounts. That cone shape front is very punky. I hope that the fiberglass takes care of it. It seems that it would need some other type of support.

Later,
