After things settleds down taht afternoon, we had a chance to try out one of Roberts new props. I think Jacqui was the very first to receive this particular size. It's the new Vess 21B, and WOW what a difference! Everyone who's seen, or HEARD her Gee Bee flying on that Bolly 20X8 knows what a loud, vibrating prop it was. Problem was, it was the only prop available at hhe time to fit that SPE 43. Thats is until Mr Vess fixed that problem.
We fired up the GeeBee and immediately felt the difference. Very smooth idle, and the plane didnt look like it was going to shake the ailerons off. Then, we took to the air. Very Quite, and very smooth. And the performance was great! Im tell'n you folks, this is THEE prop for her plane. Talk about a match made in Heaven!

Yep,,,it was a great day at RDRC, but the fun didnt end when the sun went down. Like always, the Circus crowd got together for dinner. This evening we all ended up at Regazzis for some fine Italian food. Lots of laughs, good food, and a chance to spend more time with our freinds.

Did the fun stopthere???? Oh Noooooooooooooooo,,,,,,,!!!!!

It was off to the parking lot for some T-28 action! We have an awesome place to fly at the new shopping center where Regazzi's is located. So out came the T-28's. After a little sport flying took place, things started to getr a little crazy! As they always do!
Before it was all over, Robert was missing some foam from his tail! Hmmm,,,,,,,,would that mean he got his tail chewed out for bad flying????
