Hi! My brother, Mike Winstead, is sitting here with me. He wants me to post some of the photos I took on Sunday. Here they are. Let me know if I can e-mail them to anyone who wants them.

Thanks! Debra (I go by the name of 'Carrie Matilda' when I do this kind of thing.)

Robert's flying a warbird!

That's right, last weekend I took delivery of a "Hanger 9 P-51D Mustang 150" from Pete Goldsmith while at Fly-for-Tots. I'm going to be flying it at all of the IMAA and warbird events in our area, since it has an IMAA-legal 80" wingspan. It's a really nice ARF with a cool color scheme. The mechanical retracts, struts, wheels are also very high quality for an ARF and seem to be quite sturdy. Of course, I had to get a static display prop, since that's part of what makes a P-51 so distinctive. Mine has an Evolution 26 GX gas engine that fits perfectly into the cowl with no big cutouts required. It's not overpowered by any means but it flies at a decent speed with this engine. Overall, I'm impressed by the flight performance. In fact, I flew it a bunch in the steady crosswind at RDRC today and it worked perfectly.

Here's a few pics from today. Be sure to come up and take a look at the next event or flying day at the field. I'll be happy to show you all the details.
