Default Re: Fly'n with the Circus. RDRC's traveling Circus

I wish I had some pics from the time I had you pull that fuel jug behind your plane, or the time I launched your glider by pulling it behind YOUR truck, or the time..........

Oh yeah, and even though I tried to to steer you clear of that buzzard at the Duncan, NC fly-in last weekend, nobody had pictures of that "incident" either.

I actually said "B.....1......R.......D" as I saw it approaching and then some feathers flew! It was a first in all my years of flying. Just so everyone knows what transpired, that buzzard apparently wanted the same piece of sky that Larry's Edge was passing through and, although he flew off and continued to soar around the area most of the day (unhurt!), he was minus a little bit of empennage! And I think he respects those "funny colored birds" more after that! Oddly enough, the host club for that event is called the "Balsa Buzzards". I think I know why!
