This weekend I took the ole funtana out for a huckfest. I really have not flown much since spring (we moved and a carrer change) But practice on the sim (and a little in the air) is starting to show. After my last flight of the day my rudder was busted to heck, too cool!! can't wait to fix it and do it again!!! LOL
I'll try ro get some pics to post of the damage ha!!

Practice is the only way that you can become better for sure..... I used to make the sim cap 232 wiegh like 1 pound total and just fly it for hours. I started flying about 1 and a half yrs ago and Ive progressed from shockys to a toc 35% yak and Im HUCKING it on the deck!!! BIgger FLIES BETTER!!!! I will try to figure out how to post a video

nice airplanes.... if thats your first big plane your not going to believe how foamy like it is.....get a 106 for that bad boy!!!!

green@3D · 01-04-2006, 02:47 AM

I really wanted a 106 for it but they are quite expensive here in canada, so I went with a DA 100. Still going to be pretty sweet

RustyTumbles · 01-04-2006, 10:52 PM

Nice edge mate.!!! Reckon you can get ya old man to hover that 170?? That would be BAD ASS..

At our Dec 31 fly-in a few guys came up to me and commented on how I must have been burning alot of gas this year(a ***** load). Kinda makes you feel good.

Ahhh...

Cessna 170. We have one and I absolutely love it. Love the rudder bashing action you've got going on there as well.
