Fun one to fly
1 Attachment(s)
Here is one of my favorite planes to fly--quick, agile and also forgiving. The instructors say it does a nice knife-edge. However I am not that good a flyer so I take their word for it.

RE: Fun one to fly
Looks like a "Not For Sale". I have the plans for it. One of these days I may build it. Kind of maneuverable for a beginner plane though isn't it? How is it at slow speed?

RE: Fun one to fly
This is a great plane even for someone like me that is not very good yet. Very stable at slow speed. Had a dead stick landing and the plane just floated around saying are we ready to land yet. I have it set on low rate and I think it is a great trainer. When the other guys fly it they put it on high rate and it becomes a different animal.

WOW It better do a knief edge the whole back of the plane is vertical stab and rudder. should glide along way as well.
I'd like to commend you for having the US flag displayed properly on your aircraft. I put a flag on all my aircraft,You can't believe the folks that walk up on the left side of one of my planes and ask if the flag isn't backwards. Have fun |

ORIGINAL: jetmech05 ... I'd like to commend you for having the US flag displayed properly on your aircraft. I put a flag on all my aircraft,You can't believe the folks that walk up on the left side of one of my planes and ask if the flag isn't backwards. Have fun Being the patriotic type I will probably eventually put the flag on my bird. Being aviation information challenged I did not know there was a "proper" way to display the flag on aircraft. Please explain for me. |

This question comes up from time to time. When the American flag is displayed on a vehicle such as an aircraft tail, it should be positioned with the field in the direction of forward movement. If you look at the flag emblem on military uniforms, when worn on the right sleeve, it is mounted as if flying on a staff with the feild to the front. [link]http://www.garamchai.com/askadesi/ask04.htm[/link] Normally, the stars are located on the upper left portion of the American flag, but it is not uncommon to see aircraft where the stars (also known as the canton) are on the upper right, especially on aircraft's right side and space shuttle. But why so? Proper display of the flag in motion emanates from a single principle. The flag always 'flies forward'. i.e, the canton (stars) on the flag is oriented towards the front of the moving object as though it were being carried on a staff and moving in a forward direction. The custom is to display the American flags on the both sides of a plane, usually on the vertical stabilizer in the back of the aircraft. If you happen to be looking at the left side of the aircraft (the left side from the passenger's point of view) the stars will be on the left (or normal position); If you walk around to the right side of the aircraft, the canton will be on your right! |

Ken I didn't have a left and right flag. Certainly didn't mean to be dis-respectful.

THANKS Ken!!:D

RE: Fun one to fly
Looks like a good funfly airplane.
But what's it's name? |
RE: Fun one to fly
It's called "not for sale" scratch built. Flys like it is on rails. Better flyer than I am pilot.
