G'day OF My new FA-90TS turned up today. It will be going into an old Goldberg Anniversary Cub initially and then later into a new one. I also bought the kit for a new one which I am debating on finishing as a standard J3, a clipped wing version or as a military version if I can find an Australian colour scheme. The RAAF did have a few during and after WWII.
I took my new Lanzo Bomber with my Saito FA-62 for nose weight out for its test flight a couple of days ago. Went really well. By the third flight I was taking of on full power and flying up steeply for 30 seconds and then playing gliders. It was a warm day with thunder storms building so there was lots of lift. I had to force it to come down. Fun.

My dad's 1952 Chris Craft powerboat would pick up a couple hundred RPM at full throttle just before and after a rainstorm.
