Guest Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Of course someone went flying! It was Daves. (outcast's) 2nd flight. He was in the air for about 30 mins. practicing the approach path. Slim was about but no cigar due to motor probs. Top day though. All be it a little cold!!!! SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outkast Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hello peeps, my second flight was a lot better than my first, got nicely in the seat this time and really started to enjoy it, 30 mins was about all I could do as my gloves were crap and my hands had turned numb, so much so I could not feel the stop button on the throttle, had to reach across with my left hand to cut the engine, was interesting today though, tried a bit of wieghtshift while turning etc, got up above the inversion too, good day all round, pity it was so cold, if you are going up in the next few days take some warm gloves as you will need them, god luck fellas. Safe flying, Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hi Outkast, good to meet you today and well done on the 2nd flight. Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing My motor finally ran just as the sun set so I'll try again tomorrow Hope you're feeling better.

Stuart Thanks mate, nice to have met you too, dont know what I ate but it went straight through me you were not the only one with motor problems, mine would not start either think the coil is knackered.

slim Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Hi All, My motor started first time on 5 separate occasions today including the one that took me for a quick half hour flight. It was very cold and the cloud was very low (almost fog ) so I stayed low. Rubbish landing but no damage to kit or me so not too bothered - a good learning experience.
