Finally got another hovering pic..... (Ok, this is really kinda harriering, but with the wind, the thing was sitting still in front of me)

Built this little 'ghostly pizza box' to fly around the neighborhood on halloween night. A buddy took this pic at the field today.

You don't have to worry, mine are much further away than they look.

Then again, I think one of them has hit you....

Here's TailSpinr violating my new Top Cap.

He asked me if I would be mad if he tail tapped it, I told him to just go fly it. He had a ball with it.

Now I just gotta burn fuel and get that confident.

I can't believe Scott would just laugh in the face of the ama like that! Man are you rebelious or what? I have decided that I am not going to do any more tail touches! They will all be touch and goes from now on!

Oh trust me.....none of my tail touches were intentional.......all accidental.......just got a little too close...thats my story and Im sticking to it!!!

If I could be so fortunate as to wear a Seeloff mask.........

And by the way Jon........the TC flies like crap....you need to sell it to me immediately. I'll gladly relieve you of that horid profile so that you never have to fly it again

If you can do that on the sim, then it won't me much longer at all before you're doing it for real! (that's how I learned) Hang in there and keep up the practice!

Scott,

You know I'm just sheet'in with ya. I can't sell the TC. I need it. I'll let you fly it anytime I'm out though. You like your Sledge. It is a great plane but if it sees you flying the TC too much, it'll make you turn your expo up past 100% and then you'll really have a way of it.

Jon
