| Re: Too Low To slow ! Don't you hate it when that happens. It always seems like you can do something perfect a million times but the minute you try to show someone something goes wrong.  |

Really guys its the oldest trap in the book right. Hey guys watch this!!! ( open invitation for a wrecker ) Hey just one last flight ( openly acknowledging that your going to write off your bird ) Here, let me show you ( Wham and often someone elses plane. CC severely damaged ) Theres plenty more, but yes the wind was coming from nowhere but everywhere and in gusts. It was really cool to watch 3DKID neatly knock the gear off and then rapidly harrier it onto the deck with zero damage. Only problem is Conner you must give me time to fire up the video gear. Those prangs can be immortal so next time you want to show me how low and slow you can go give me a few minutes to pull out the vid gear. Kiwi |

well atleast there was no real damage dude. Landing gear is bugger all its when you put it in on a wing tip that it suck. My signature move by the way
