LASTWOODSMAN | Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper | Parked | 20-Jul-17 12:52 | | Views : 278 | And my little plane was happy too - quite the valiant flights by that little Gypsy girl!! She really gave her all in that wind ! - reminds me of my exes. I think I will now call her "Nancy", or "Sandy", or both ... depending on the mood swing of the plane at the time... LOL Oh, how I miss the touch of a woman ... a little bit of female affection would really cap off a great day of flying !! But I digress ... LOL |
LASTWOODSMAN | Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper | Parked | 20-Jul-17 12:48 | | Views : 297 | I had put in 40 cranks on the winder handle = 600 winds on the rubber, and LO AND BEHOLD!! - a 29 SECOND BRAVELY FOUGHT FLIGHT TURNING LEFT, in 8 mph wind, gusting to 15 mph. The temp was 83 degrees F, feels like 103 degrees F, and humidity of 73%. It was getting too windy and the tissue was getting wet and starting to SAG ! But I was a "HAPPY CAMPER" flying my "AIR CAMPER" !!! So I went home before smashing it up ... |
