What a docile flier she is, does wonderful aeros, holds heading well, does not show any tendency of wing drop even during a high 'G' stall.

A Good pilot will practice until he gets it right,
A Great pilot will practice until he can't get it wrong.

Oops! Please convey my appologies to your 2ic.

Sure sir we should make it to Barapani.

The spot is beautifull for flying a foamy hand launched and grass landed.

Good boat rides and an excellent picnic spot. We had a picinic from our office early in this month.

Good Col, Brmhaputra Dolphins are the same.
And Gusty's flight commander is another great flyer, was here at Chennai, and he was gracious enough to sometime invite us to fly at the full scale airfield 
If you are really into scale you should be here. www.rcscalebuilder.com

I realize why there is only one pilot and the rear cockpit is empty.
