SteveM | Midwest Products Aero-Star .40 | Flying | 25-Jan-09 01:09 | | Views : 1428 | I got plenty of flying in too but had a close call. I was making a wide sweep with the Aero-Star to line up for a touch and go. I got a little too far away and suddenly realized that pole was between me and the plane so I hit the gas and grabbed elevator. |
SteveM | Midwest Products Aero-Star .40 | Flying | 25-Jan-09 01:07 | | Views : 1455 | Ed was kind enough to help my friend again this weekend. The plane was finally air worthy so he go to learn on his own plane, but the controls were too sensitive so time was spent adjusting the linkages. Hopefully soon the plane will be dialed in. |

SteveM | Midwest Products Aero-Star .40 | Flying | 17-Jan-09 17:06 | | Views : 1515 | Ed showing my friend/coworker how to fuel up and start his engine. He purchased the plane from the LHS 2 years ago but didn't know anyone that flew till he saw me browsing the VA one day. The engine has never been started and he has never flown before. |
SteveM | Midwest Products Aero-Star .40 | Flying | 17-Jan-09 17:03 | | Views : 1367 | Fog initially limited flying to smaller and slower aircraft like the Tyro, Slow Stick, and similar. My flights on the Tyro were limited by cold hands, not battery capacity. Props and wings were icing up in the freezing fog. |
