Well I dusted mine off and took it along to our annual fun fly at my club. I sat it out and looked at it for a couple of hours while I was flying my other planes. Finally got my nerve up and gassed her up. It has not been started in well over a year. Just touched it with the starter and the os .70 4 stroke came right to life, just as if it had been fine tuned yesterday. Took her up, got her trimmed, did a few basic moves, have to say that ole Great Lakes was looking pretty good. Then it came time to land. Set up,it looked like it was going to be perfect. Then wham: over on herback, business as usual!! oh well, I won't worry about it until next year!
