At dusk the furry visitor is joined by a friend for a late dinner. |

Closer look at the visitor. |

Nice weather for flying the Stinson. |

Actually, this flight was made a couple of weeks ago on a day with little wind. Today. 04-29-11, surprisingly is quite calm, so I may do some more flying later in the day. As much as we need the rain, I'm glad we missed the last forecast of rain. I feel for the folks farther to the northeast that caught the tornadic weather. Scary. |

Thanks, Bill. One of my favorite rules of building = KISS. |

A couple of days later, even better for flying:o) |

A late afternoon test flight was successful. |

With a few dabs of Duco, the wing was reattached. And wide clear packing tape makes acceptable windshield material for small models. |

After the prior mishap, we managed to remove the other wing in a collision. Also the windshield had been missing for a while. |

Thanks, Bill. We will come over this week. Looking forward to give it a try. |

I have a plane over here for you, Simpleflyer. Built it special for you to fly... |

Thanks, James and Steve. Luck plays a big part in a shot like this. Thanks to the digital camera, I'm able to take a lot of pix and delete a lot of them before a nice one like this one happens. Then, thanks to Photosmart and Windows Paint we can crop and resize the subject to present it in a most favorable position. |

About to touch down for landing. |

A few days later, we were practicing touch-and-goes with the Stinson. Here it makes a low pass over the landing area. |
simpleflyer, Image # 21605 | 12 Mar 11 00:31 |
A few dabs of Duco glue and the Stinson was soon back in the air. |
