I'd much prefer to fly large scale gliders outdoors. The mini's are fun for the living room.

That said, I bet I could fly a 4 channel, but you better believe I'd start on the PC.

Used to really enjoy doing 3d aerobatics with 40 size at local RC club field. That was like 15 years ago and RC has changed soo much. Everything is arf and electric now.

Looks like Shell re-branded my oil. It was Rotella T 40wt. Now Rotella T1. Still shows it as supporting SJ at 40 and 50 weight.

I give up trying to figure out what the oil companies and government are doing with oil. I was ticked when Mobile dropped 20-50

My local distributor is great. They mostly sell to the big guys, but welcome the small guy like me. The guy that sold me the oil yesterday has been there for years and spent 30-45 minutes researching Rotella T for me years ago. Even had a few pages of printout waiting for me when I showed up. I think they'll be there a looong time. That soil has to be extremely contaminated these days. * They do run a tight ship, but still... It's oil, accidents happen and things spill from time to time.

Time for me to exploit more of Wayne's bandwidth.

Morning all. Last day of the work week for me. And speaking of work, best wishes to Azzy and tweeze on your job searches. I hope you are both successful!
