Garage
Mornin' all. Don't need another vehicle yet.

It was so nice outside this weekend we cleaned the garage. Took the boy out to fly the R?C Corsair so he can get good enough to fly his bomber. Saturday morning he started watching a bird or something instead of the plane. Sunday was much better. He was doing figure eights and the only "problem" he had was getting too high. I also found out it doesn't like to fly inverted very well. Even on high rates. Almost crashed the thing. It also glides like a glider making it hard to judge the landing. You have to pull the throttle off way earlier than you think you should and it still comes in pretty hot. It really could use some flaps.

Did some hiking yesterday as well. It is a bit mushy out there. Going to try to get up to the EAA museum sometime in the next few weeks. There isn't time to visit it during AirVenture.

Jeff, have fun out there.
