Here is video of Ali Machinchy and Thomas Singer performing a little formation flying with a couple of BAE Hawks
Wrong text on title page of the video, it's not a montage.

I had wanted to get this posted last night, but YouTube choked on the encoding of the video that I uploaded, so I had to rerender the video. So here is it.

Many people were anticipating the flight of Bob Levine's new Mibo A-10. With the intakes fans, the split ailerons, and even the pilot controls moving itis an incredible scale aircraft. Because of the winds on Thursday he decided to not fly it that day, but with better conditions on Friday he put it up in the afternoon. Very quickly into the flight things turned really bad. The plane started shedding parts and then developed very severe flutter in the wings. Bob slowed the plane down and the flutter seemed to stop. He turned back around and lined up on the runway when the flutter returned. All I can say is that Bob probably should head straight for Vegas and bet heavily, as he's a very VERY lucky man to have gotten this plane back on the ground in one piece.

Here's the video of his flight.

I guess the split ailerons didn't work out too well. I wonder if anybody else has used them successfully? I also wonder how he still had roll control - via the rudder? Good save...

The FEJ F-4 was extreamly tail heavy and very "pitchy". I did the best I could to get it down in one piece. As it turned out, the only damage was to the right strut and replace the gear doors. Good ballance now! Great flying plane even with the CG out!
Sorry....

Andreas with his A4, this is a stunning model. I hope it doesn't need much repair.

When the FAA tells you to land, there is a reason.

One last set from today. I wish I had photos of Rob Lynch flying his BVM Sabre/fury on EDF, it was fantastic. no pun intended.

More from Friday, and I figured out how to get the Hi-Def version up, and man it looks good! Make sure you change it from the 360p or 480p playback to 720p HD:

Jorden, Thank you very much for this footage. That was very smooth flying for that tudor and you sir are not foreign to great camera work. You kept that bird in the middle of the screen "Right On". It will go to the top of my video archives. You have captured a rarity. Mabey the pilot flying that bird will post a few pics showing his set-up later. Thanks again Jorden and have a ball down there.
