Robert S. - May 14, 2007 09:35 PM (GMT)
I'll use Justin ham bone form the SAT NITE FLY tomake soup with Veg. form the garden. We will bread, crackers, and dessert. Any volunteers???
Flying Dutchman - May 14, 2007 10:27 PM (GMT)
What are you asking us to volunteer for, Robert? :huh:
To cook? — I'll help again (... oh, sorry about those hush puppies Sunday... :sick:)
To eat? — We'll have plenty of people to do that... <_<
To bring additional food? — I'll help again... Let's hope all the other eaters will bring something too... <_<

Robert what in the world are you going to fly that has an 80'' wing span and uses a webra .55????? Dad's 25% yak has an 81'' wingspan using a O.S. 1.60, yet your mystery plane uses a .55?? sounds like another flying wing.......
Mike - May 14, 2007 10:46 PM (GMT)
80" with a Webra .55? I'm guessing it's one of those slasher/predator/something or other combat wings, am I right?

:newstuff: Frits tested the I CAN'T FLY .55 Hotliner It flies GREAT. :banana: Even with the 80" wingspan it has a nice roll rate & it turns really tight. It flies far better than I expected. In a full dive it was clocked at 190 mph . Alvin said the county radars are off and that why they give out so many speeding tickets. I'm ready for sunday. :yickes: :yickes:

Hopefully it will make it through the combat this weekend so I can use it for a target the next time! 80" Sounds like a good target! :parachute: Don't go too fast the streamer won't hold up!
Take plenty of pictures this weekend since I won't make it. :crying: :hmm: :no: :(
