I really had no choice in the matter. After take off I had throttle issues and the throttle was stuck at about 3/4!!!!! I kinda freaked out for a min, as I was the only one at the field.....

I kept flying here around for a min to try and work the throttle to see what might be going on. Nothing. She was stuck and not moving.

Mind you this was about 1-2 min after take off, and a full tank of fuel. So, I was in for the long haul and would just empty the tank and dead stick her in.

I kept doing the landing pattern just in case. Finally it died out, just as I passed the runway and was parallel with the runway.

I was about at mid runway when she died and then turned her in and brought her down. She was coming in hot by the way, and I overshot the runway.

I flared it too early and nearly stalled it out. Good think for the trainer style wing, cause she took the over flare and just glided down a bite more and then touched down. Nosed over just a bite, but nothing too bad.

No damage down.

Anyway, got back to the pits and looked things over... the throttle barrel was like "jammed" and was not moving at all, like it is out of round....

Anyway, good excuse to get the new carburetor I was thinking of getting to help with idle and transition issues.

I managed to get in about 4 flights, all with decent landings before she died out on me. Good thing to, the rain was coming it.
