Craig Carr Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Well done Enrico/Frederico I Know you've been trying to nail the DS manouver for years. Bet your itching to try it again..... . That defo puts you up there at the top of the HTP possee. watch out though Ken Andersonic will be secretly practicing and vying for your sherrifs badge. Jim... Good news re Ken getting your name right at last... Looks like his memory is improving after all so now we can call off the men in white coats.. .

r6dan Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 When I got a call at 4 saying it was a tad too windy for the zagi I went on the hunt for a 25 kilo bag of sand to weight it,but alas couldn`t find one..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wor'Keith Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Managed to get down to the bay . . Yesterday 4.0 O’clock ish, knew from local forecast that it would be ‘wild’ but hoped that the wind would have eased off a little. Enrico . John . Roger, were the last men standing. Enrico was flying his M60, in testing conditions. John was flying another . ‘Plank’ . ending in the back field on arrival. Rogers . ‘Zaggi’ had long been retired to the car. Wind meter reading on the lip’ was av’ 30+ mph. Just on the wrong side of N. (Well out of my. ( Weasels) . comfort zone). Wind forecast looks wrong side of N. for today. Sunday looks a maybe. . . .

John Privett Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I though Ken had gone to Malta! Or is he sitting in "Anderson Mission Control" on a Maltese beach with laptop and phone at the ready, passing on news to the waiting millions on modelflying.co.uk? Alternatively, if he hasn't gone yet, there's a danger I might bump into him again when I come up north on Wednesday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
