 |  Finally saw a 40% close up
I am not a plane guy but I some interest in seeing one close up. Colonel Klank brought the beast out Looked big enough to ride in once it was together  and screaming loud with the "break-in" prop. Looking forward to seeing him "bring it" now that it is broken in and is getting a new prop!I managed to break the belt on my new 90 sized electric helicopter but I autoed it in down at the end of the runway so the "Heli Gods" smiled on me. A rarity for sure! We Freaks also showed the Colonel his Blade CP would fly inverted if you REALLY want it too  It was a good time at the field and looking forward to meeting more of the FG boys next week for our club fly in. We have to get you guys and the HeiFreaks crew together for an event since we all seem to know how to have a good time. Oh Pat this is the video I wanted you to watch from out trip to B-Ham last week... ALL HELICOPTERS.... YEAH BABY! http://danslagle.com/data/movies/BHamTease07_HI.wmv |

I should be switching to a 32 X 12 this afternoon and will take a sound pressure reading. It is 104db now! (Biffy would puke) Tom Lewis and Debian Dog both wrung out my CP Pro yesterday in fine style. (Dan, I have your Tx strap) Now, it's off to Big Jerry's Airport for the day. (site of the 1st annual IMAC Butcherfest) Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

Thanks Jerry, Kent, Jamie! Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking Sterno.
