Default Re: 3dubya Trainer deserves award

I think he deserves an award, funny thing is it reminds me of all the time people flying a trainer are automatically ready in their own minds for the most hard core plane there is and not taking full advantage of their own trainer.
Several times I have heard someone state this and I will take their plane and do things with it that they thought a Lowly trainer is not suppose to do, this not only saves them a plane their not ready for usually, but makes their interest in their own trainer rekindled....kinda fun actually..................So heck yeah, give the boy an award!!

Chuck

OK,

Definetly award material. Maybe a DCM (dont come Monday) or even a plain old knighthood. Can you imagine a good morning Sir 3dubya.

Max, this needs a special more than bad ass award. Time to get the award design crew back to work.

Heeyyy LOL thanks guys, brings a tear to my eyes. A flying knighthood from the king of the giants Max. "I Dub Thee Sir Dubya" I like the sound of that. A 3D knight of the ground table. Thanks to Doc for shooting awsome little vid with StarWars like changes in scenes, and thanks to IMAC Kiwi for promoting vid well with a vote post.

P.S. Its a Phoenix Classic Trainer guys, hope you can get them over there for they are awsome with the OS50sx in them. They actually cost about the same as a shock flyer over here $70 AUD.

I say Max needs to have a, " 3D knight of the ground table award" Kinda has a ring to it, and if 3dubya isn't a great first award winner, I don't know who is!!

Come on Max........Give it up!!

Well Tony, looks like you started a trend. Just got this pic from Onecan after his flying today. An AT40 Trainer you can buy for 100 Kiwi bucks.

Yea tried 3dubya's flaperon mix, doesn't work too bad!! Tried a vertical landing but ended up falling on to its wheels, then took off again. Good fun.

Cheers,
