Forktailed Dr Killer flies again!

After 3.5 yrs on the ground, a new engine, re-skinned ruddervators, ADSB upgrade, and a bunch of AD's, I flew the V-tail today.

My first thought was, "The ailerons are really sloppy"! However, on further investigation I realised that they were fine - just much, much lighter than the A36 that I have been driving for the last few years.

Goes well, sounds sweet, flies straight, everything works - all good.

I had a dream a couple of weeks ago in which I had an engine failure on TO, parked it wheels up off the end of Rwy 01, and fortunately walked away unhurt.

Didn't happen!

Dr
