If it wasn't so dark,i think i would take it outside and put it behind my truck with a log chain just for you, ,i'll have the camera with me when it flies,either by me or somebody.
Thanks

My neighbor kids run a go-cart (illegally) up and down the street a lot. I was out taxing my plane in the yard and they wanted to race it down the street. I was tempted, till I realized I had no brakes. I'm not sure how fast an Extra-EZ 2 would go down the street, but I know it would be way too fast to keep it close and safe. Oh, and is a small chunk of (unused) ladies panty hose rubberbanded over the carb a decent filter? I got new ones (funny feeling buying them) just so I wouldn't get any hairs down the carb.. - Joe

There is an old saying here that March comes in like a lion and leaves like a lamb (as far as the wind). I hope there is some truth in that. Its April1! Its windy outside now though.

I thought Texas and wind were Inseparable.

The wind mill farms are just east of San Francisco, CA. I know. Drove through that area enough times when I was stationed in Long Beach and my now ex was living in Livermore.

Wouldn't supprise me. I have seen just about everything everywhere I go, and that was alot while I was in the service.

EDIT:--- Would everyone quit talking about spring already!!! Right now they are calling for 1-3 inches of white stuff tonight and another 1-3 inches tomorrow. Last weather forcast I saw said we will be under a winter storm watch at 10:00 PM. I hope spring will show up here SOON!!!!!!
