Default RE: bummer

Ha, Ha, Ha, I got to fly yesterday in the very strong winds. I was doing some cuban 8's and someone said I hear something, you better land. When I was on final, the nose was pitched quite high, look like I was getting ready to drop a tail hook. Anyways, got in on the ground and the whole underside of the covering had come off. Ultracote on the top, ribs on the bottom. So back to the shop and mom helped recover the bottom. I think what happen was, I was using a dull knife and when I went to cut the top covering off I pressed to hard and cut through the bottom covering. Boy, see if I let my wife cover again[&o][&o]
