fly boy3 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Glad to hear you are out and about after such serious health problems. This is one instance where electric is better. No lugging batteries, starters etc, not to mention fiddling with cold engines trying to get em to start. Welcome back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Etheridge 1 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Hi Phil , I remember you telling us before that you had had some health problems so I am glad you are now making some effort to get into the fresh air and have fun with some model flying again. You may be pleased to know that the 3 planes you gave me to repair still survive, the 'Super Air' and the 'Victor Meldrew Fun Fly' plus one other. The latter needs more lead in the nose , however the Super Air flew perfectly last year but could do with a few more flights. Best Wishes, Mike Edited By Mike Etheridge 1 on 14/10/2018 22:01:07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
