RE: New drop plane - the
Don, I'll get the cd out on Monday. Give you something to do while you're iced in the frozen north.
That is really great of you to send out a Muncie DVD. Will be looking forward to it,
Went to the field today and made 3 jumps with "Charly". Guess I need to look at my cd on packing chutes as the first two had fouled control lines. They were making like a helicopter. The third was much better. Landed next to me in a 20mph wind!!! Guess I'm practicing for a windy rally in Columbus, Oh.
The new "No Name" jump plane worked ok but will have to put some washers behind the mount top to give it more down thrust. The 4 1/2 " cg seemed to work well even after all the mods I made.
Mike, your Telemaster worked great at Muncie with the gasser on it. Without more experience with "No Name", I would not suggest you change your setup just yet. As the wx gets better I will try two then three jumpers and will then be able to make suggestions. If it ain't broke, don't fix it would apply at this time!!
