Wringing it out in Little Rock
Had an OK afternoon today. Everyone had engine starting problems (except me) and the winds were not co-operating
I flew my Baby Clown and it was all over the place and was fighting the wind. The engine quit inverted and I managed to flip it just in time for a nice pancake. After a few runs from the other guys I put the Ring up. The engine did an OK run but kept lifting on the windy side it flew Allright, but not spectacular. I do know that a rudder makes very little difference as I snapped it off during the starting ritual. It flew just fine without it.
All in all I met some new friends and was able to do a little flying. Here are some pics of planes.

I was flying my coroplast wing today too. Rather fun having something near indestructible to fly!
I filled the ovaled screw holes with hot glue and reassembled this morning and it works a charm!
