I like 'em "BIG"!
It was good times in Tri-Cities. Well, except for the part where I "FORGOT" to put in the canopy bolts on my brand new Yak. A single aileron roll to the left and that silly G-Force pilot bust got sckeerd and pulled the eject handle. Canopy came floating down to the ground. Not badly damaged, but bad enough I packed her up and swore I would not fly her the rest of the three days at the event. Of course I changed my mind. But if that wasn't bad enough...I dumped the brand new Pilot Edge inverted. Again, not badly damaged...a left wing panel and some re-glued hinges and she'll be good as new. Just kind of stupid....LOL. I will get some photos posted probably tomorrow.

All in all, it was great fun. As usual, the Big Kauna, (David Mahan) and SupaTim rocked. I swear, those guys could "huck" a brick.

Sorry I have been absent fellas. Just been trying to get caught up on somethings here at home. That and ordering Yak and Edge parts. Doah!!!

With the exception of a pretty stiff breeze, it was a GORGEOUS day today. I took my Pilot Edge and it really loved the cool dry air. The GP61 ran better than ever. I do need to be more careful landing that thing into a stiff headwind. On a calm day it slows down like it has a parachute. Into a stiff wind it slows down like you dropped an anchor.o_O If that wind stops before you land look out! I managed to plop it in on the first landing, thankfully it didn't break anything.

I spent most of my flights today flying a friends foam EDF jet. There were a bunch of them out there today, and we had a blast! Those things are a huge amount of fun, for the money.
