Friday morning flying.
I've been having trouble with the spring tension on my stooge, as in it won't release the plane! I get to stand there and watch it burn a tank of fuel, holding the handle in case it actually let's go. Got that fixed . First time I've flown in three weeks other than one speed flight. Maneuvers ranged from big and sloppy to tight and stalling but I had fun and my airplanes still in one piece.

Not sure if it is quiet. It's a muffled LA .46 turning 9500 on the ground.

Re: Friday morning flying.
Nice day at the field. I wish I could watch this on something bigger than my tiny phone.
