sorry bout the bad luck there greg! bob will probably come up with some sort of "fix" that will take another 1/2lb out vs everyone else's fixes that add weight! LOL

Yep I swear he was so low to the ground that I could see the heads of the cows in the field above the plane before he recovered it!

Show off...............

Cant wait till the next flight.....

It was good to meet you Kevin, and great flying too my friend.

Bob

Nice meeting you as well. Hope to see you again at the 3D fly in at fort bend on the 26th!

Yea! You going to make that one Bob? Would be cool if bring down the Pedo van and show those Houstonites how to really throw down.

And no lame excuses about a tail wheel this time. I will run behind it holding the tail in the air if it means you will fly more than once!

Speaking of tail wheels - what was your solution Bob?

Is the fort bend fly-in on the 26th of June or July?

I ordered a White Rose Engineering tail gear, I think when the tire came off, the axle dug into the wet ground and snapped the carbon gear. I should have it ready to go by the weekend.

Hey Bob, did that DVD work out ok for you?

Something has to be done with that canopy
Anything smaller and it would be criminal.

June

Back in the Early 90's I knew a guy named Jason Somes. He was flying a 40%er of some sort with NO tail wheel. Squeeky damn thing. He wore it right down to the rudder in one short weekend. When I asked him what was up with the tail wheel. He simply said "What the Hell do you need a wheel for?"
