Default Avistar maiden (pictures inside)

got about 4-5 flights (to excited to keep track) on my new RTF avistar. The throws were already perfect. I just flew left hand circuits with a few right turns mixed in. He only had to take it like 1-3 times when it was heading to the sun or a car was passin.. And I took off twice. this was also on a cement road. in the middle of a cane feild with ditch on either side. Oh it feels gooodddd. I will probally be landing on a grass runway for the first few times. all of this and my instructor just turned 14. He's an awsome pilot. He just got a F4U corsair for christmas.

So far I haven't landed. watched one week to solo vhs. hopefully be landing today. just took off twice and did circuits yesterday.

1st pic- low speed low flyby by instructor

2nd pic- instructor crosswind landing

3rd pic- tuning the engine

4th pic- Me taking the controls. ~We received the wrong buddy cord so we had to toss the controller back and forth~

I can't get those links to work. You can post pics directly on this site.
