Been so cold here that I've spent some time converting footage from a while back. Here is our "Little Traveler" flight from back in 2009...along with the "Lost Photo" that was supposed to be included in the video !

That took some huevos Kim, and some flying skill. Very cool. Was that engine throttled?

Thanks Mark...can't believe it's been more than 3 years ago. We've got to get another crazy project on the front burner.
Hey Ron,
The engine was a stock "Red Scorpion" from Bernie, with no throttle. When we arrived at Uncle Wayne's house, I had to circle for a few minutes until the fuel ran out. After a week of wind and rain, we had a perfect day for the flight.

That was really kind of George Clooney to hold the TX
Kim.
How long have you known him?
Very Happy

Just to prove that this particular brand of craziness is NOT limited to Missouri Stump-Jumpers, here's a scan from the August 1960 edition of Model Airplane News, showing some of our brother Englanders going for it! Looks like if I do another distance flight, I shall need a dangling cigarette and my aviator goggles for a proper ensemble! Strange thing is, I can't seem find in the article, the actual distance they flew !!! Could have been a "1960's Cold War" security thing....

I remember reading several articles like this, and am sifting through my collection, trying to find them.

I liked the "dramatic re-enactment" of the flight. BTW, how did you meet George Clooney?
