Muff bro??[X(]
It's a skydiving thing. To become a Muff Brother you have to make a formation skydive with at least one current Muff brother while wearing a pair of earmuffs. And what were you thinking vicman?

I just thought I would ask. The version I was thinking of did involve diving but without ear muffs...I guess if they were fuzzy it would be ok.

Mopar,
I just may fly it this weekend. I've been mainly working with quickies lately...Of the 500 muff boy.[sm=bananahead.gif]

Does my 185+ mph Weston Magnum and clipped wing Nelson powered Q500 win me anything?

It appears that i did not adhere to the rules and submit a valid application. [X(] I hope that this will serve to validate my request to enter into the Brotherhood. Sorry, these are the only pictures available but these planes were pretty fast.
I flew a Kougar that was verified at well over 100mph more than twenty years ago.

Is that a Combat Models F-16 I see there?

I've got one I have been threatening myself with finishing for about 5 years.

It is indeed. Circa 1991 or so. Put a TT Pro 46 in it and it did scoot!

I've got an MVVS Q500 stuffed in mine. I am all the way to the point of painting and have stalled again. Was yours wayyy nose heavy? mine is even after taking 1.5" off and moving everything back. Did you need a header tank and or Perry pump to feed the motor?

Sorry Vicman, that was almost twenty years ago. I can imagine that i did balance it as i normally do a pretty good job on that but i can't remember what gear was in it or how i worked out the balance. I do remember that the TT46 which i still have and which has never flown in anything else since provided plenty of power and that there was no pump or header tank. I want to say that the tank was included with the kit but i could be wrong and don't remember what i did put in it. I do remember that while not a record setter, it was pleasantly fast for a foam jet back then and was smooth flying. Maybe i'll pop in some old VCRs and try to find a video of it.
