Default RE: BH T-28 Assembly

Maindened this morning and flew great. Ailerons and elevator at book settings were a little too sensitive for me so I adjusted and sent her up again. Grass field-let it roll about 25 feet and lifted off nicely with Tower 61 for power. Flew at half throttle and did nice loops and aileron rolls were right around the prop shaft. Floated in for very slow landings without flaps and landed on the mains and let the nose down gently. Grass has not started to grow yet so feild was fairly smooth but bent the nose gear both times. The wire for the nose gear is so soft I could probably bite it off with my teeth. I have another gear from a different plane I never used and will make a replacement. This plane should meet all my expectations and be a lot of fun this summer. Hope all you guys are as pleased.
