Man thats just not right posting that picture. Can't believe the officers can't get the field rolled as to not cause hidden lakes (just kidding). Come in a little fast and hit one, next thing ya know your plane looks like a damn turtle! Just for that Don wait tell I get hold of that Yak again!

After tuning his motor for him, Wayne let me take the sticks on the Python. Only wish I had taken my glasses, kept it very safe. Worked on Baj's plane for some time and took it out for a spin. All I could hear the whole time was Baj behind me saying remember the motor wasn't running well (key word here Baj wasn't). Mark had me fly his Hanger 9 Extra to see what needs to be done for radio programming. Engine needs to be leaned out some so we can get a little more on top end, but with the Satio Gasser the plane flies nice without the weight of the 50cc.

Then what to say about my friend Don, the man I have done so much for. Spent countless hours building and setting up planes. I basicly had to take the radio away from him to get 2 minutes stick time. Geessshhh you would think him would have gladly given it up.

By the way I didn't take a single plane to the field today but think I got as much flying in as anyone else there. Man I love OP's.

Thanks Guys

La de da. Now cat just doesn't bother to bring planes and just wants to fly ours. So he tunes a few motors, takes Baj's spinner, cowl, and prop off, put the prop back on so he could tune it right, bla, bla, bla. I'll remind you that it was Wayne that spotted the ignition wire was backwards, plus I helped to get the cowl off. Jeeeze, you make guy’s motors run good and they fall like lemmings. Well, I have to say that I’m sorry brother for telling everyone at the field that had issues, “Chane will fix it.” You can fly my planes anytime; I wanted to give you the plane but I think I had some CA on my fingers and I couldn’t let go of the radio. Nice work today man! I know of no other in this hobby that helps more guys out than you. You da man. Could you imagine letting Craven tune your motor, I mean my god man, the humanity.

Silly me I forgot to mention that Don did help...He pushed the spark plug wire through the hole in the cowl when I was taking it off....Thanks for the help Don....

Carl, you left without saying goodbye, dude not fair, I had promised the guys I would be there Sunday. I had over slept and got up late, so just took a shower put back on my pj's and ran to the field. After all the grooming, had my morning coffee looked out the window and saw all the gang having a blast , now that was just wonderful to see.
I finished the horizontal fins while I was having my coffee got ready and came out. By then you had left and saw the rear lights of chief catman’s truck turn on. Almost ran to him and asked why he was leaving. He had just come to the truck to do something.
Man in the hands of a pro Chane, who knew what he was doing, I was blown away! How in a few turns of the carb he had the thing start right up. He kept on saying Baj it is just not producing the power, I need to take the cowl off.
Exposing my 3 months of work on the plane after the last crash, he looked inside the engine compartment and checked things. In the mean time Wayne showed up peeked inside. He had run into this problem before, he pointed out that the Ignition module wires were reversed. Just goes to show I must have hung around Ralph too long and smoked some while working on my plane.
To make the long story short, My only reaming large plane's engine roared to life. Chane you impressed the hell out of me with your knowledge of these engines, dude not only do fly like a pro, but know your stuff. From now onward engine tune-up’s by Chane will cost you 50 bucks 5% discount coupons available from me. LOL
Thank you Chane.

P.S Wayne thank you for pointing out the problem, I loved your Biplane, super nice.
Don was so happy today, all he wanted was to see people have fun and share their friendship with fellow members. It was after dark that we all left. It was just one of those magical days at SSRCC as they used to be. Thank you all for making us all smile. The pictures from Don Cam-Mahal, were perfect and don Thanks for loading them.

So Carl dude you left without saying goodbye to me, don’t do that again, it is for all of you that I come to the field if I miss seeing you come on over before you leave. I thought about that all day, and so sorry I missed you.


Baj
I thank all the visitors from Wingbusters, and all present on this Sunday for making it a most enjoyable day at SSRCC. This Sunday we missed the company of 2 who were scared off by the dark clouds, and the monsters in the lake as you can see in the picture Carl posted. Ken and dave, where were you?

We have been through this before. I use the Shake and Bake commercial as my example so it has been well documented that if you shake the bag you can say, "And I helped." At lease when I helped push the spark plug through, I didn't have to stand on a stool to see what was going on like at your man cave with the five foot high bench!!
