WHAT A DAY
check this out. we had in central fla today heavy wind and gusting up i guess around 30 maby higher didnt take my wind guage out. no lift at all, not even the buzzards were out today. but guess who was. yep us addicts. here are a couple of pics of my bud flying his looks like a 3 meter organic.its well over 1000.00 for just the airframe. i wasnt fast enough to get the impact it happend so fast. the wind just would not let it go up he said. it got too vertical and couldnt act fast enough. this will make ya sick. it did me. this had more carbon fiber on it than the space shuttle

Re: WHAT A DAY
My catch phrase in a moment like this is: " nothing a little clickety-click over to soaring usa/www.f3x.com wont cure"
Bummer about the plane though. Its a sick feeling when that happens. |
