Mike Etheridge 1 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 George, Best of luck also from me for Sunday. Some months back when I saw the balsa fluttering out of the sky the last thing I thought was that the Stuka would fly again so it just shows you what can be achieved You must be feeling very good at present but a bit apprehensive? I hope the repair cost was not excessive? Well I got my planes ready today for Barton's Point but I understand the wind is picking up from 15 MPH so I have just emptied the car. I gather tomorrow (Sunday) is also going to be windy so perhaps you may have second thoughts about flying the Stuka? MJE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Hackman 2 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Thanks Mike we will see i will take wind safe aircraft too and see how it is on the day no rush all that work. and the cost £40 how much for a new one? a and it feels good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETER BRUCE - Eastchurch Gap Posted August 11, 2012 Author Share Posted August 11, 2012 Hi George. Chance is the wind could well be a factor Sunday but if it looks like you can fly I will be there with the camera. Regards Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Did anyone else spot the slight mistake at around 51 seconds? Mind you, it might go some way to explaining why one model was on a right hand circuit and the other on a left hand when the nasty happened!
