Nice plane Dave! That looks like a .40 size pattern ship.
I used to fly models a lot, but no time for it in the past 7 years or so.
I still own a .60 size helicopter, a full size Telemaster with a .90 and a half gallon fuel tank. That thing will stay airborne for a while. I have a few other others, mostly pattern style. Back in the late 80's, I did some contest flying.
I still love models. I wish I had more time. There is something about tossing a model around the sky pulling g-forces that would kill a pilot that just does the soul good :-)
I have been flying full size since 1976. At one point I got heavily into aerobatics, almost bought an Extra at one point. I discovered that I loved being upside down at 3,000 feet, but not inverted at 10 feet over the runway in an airshow :-) I also can't believe how much worse 7 g's hurt at my current age as opposed to 9 g's 14 years ago :-)
Anyway, sorry to get so far off topic. I would love to hear a bit about your experience. Has your wife ever been involved in your 'habit'?
Also, I want to hear details about the new relationship with you and wife!
All the best, -NOPkins-
I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.
