wiz

I lost it to a glitch in the radio gear a little while back
yeah right, thats what they all say

Was watching the RC guys down the park some time ago and due to a momentary lack of attention one guys model was last seen heading out to sea, thus denyimg him the opportunity of chasing it in his car. We have a special airport for them up at Whiteman Park and some of the RCs are just amazing.

Geez I had to go back three pages to find out what was going on and you had me fooled with the original pic, went back with eyes open and it was plain as daisy.

Me flying in Wellington, NZ just took off passing 1000ft, my second flight ever, taken last year in December i think, this flight got me up to 1.2hrs.
Its a BE23 Sundowner, 4 seater, my mum was in back, and she was just as nervous as me...

Training flight with PAX......not sure if thats allowed, I m sure some will clear it up pretty quick!

Anyway the first few hours are the scariest......for your instructor usually

After my forst 10 to 12 hours he jumped out with smokes in hand and said "you are too scary to fly with, go do a circuit yourself!"

Children will one day take over the world, for starters though we'll teach you all how to use computers.
