And here it is just a couple months later after a big mean (now dead) bird was finished with it.

Here's my prangster... almost indestructible and flies great, can do more aerobatics than me....

So far loops, rolls, spins, inverted(tricky) squareish loops, stall turns, cuban and some more I invented by accident (the half stall turn anyone?).

Two trees and two straight down crashes, and no airframe damage at all.

Heartily recommended. If you want to learn to fly rather than to repair...

Default My Eagle 63

Here is my Eagle 63. This plane has seen a lot of action.
It is about 15 years old. 1 minor crash, 1 major. This plane has
trained both my son and I and we estimate it has over 125 flights on her as of June 24, 2003. It has an Enya .46 2 stroke engine, with a HiTec receiver and 4 standard servos. It is fun to fly because we have a huge 12 oz. tank on it so it flies forever. Actually we flew it once for 19 min.

This isn't the plane I learned on, but I'm teaching my wife and brother to fly with it.
It's a Dandy Sport. (the pic was taken before I got the sport wing)

Not the plane I learned to fly on many years ago, but the plane my father bought me that got me back in to the hobby and allowed me to knock off the rust. I use it to play around with, and as a backup when doing flight training:

if you have adobe photoshop, load it, click on image, then image size, and then reduce it. save it as a jpeg. it will give you some options. the most prominant is immage quality. bring it down until it says 70k or under.

Sorry, I love showing that plane off. That's why i took the muffler off. It turns heads in the pitts everytime when i rev it up in little spurts as i pass the 40 size high wing trainers. Didi you see the Rent Me sign in the background? my door is covered with things like that.
