Got in a little bit of high quality DLG time today.
Oh what fun,
it was to fly,
A carbon ship today.

AWESOME Dude ! ! ! ! !

What are you doing Nov 3rd? We are having our Toys For Tots Fly-in that day. Flying fee is a new toy for the kids. It would be great to FINALLY meet you.

Surgery went well today. An artificial meat invented for burn victims was input where I lost meat. If my body accepts it, blood vessels will grow into it and skin will grow over it. I might be flying again this weekend but will need starting help.

You must be tough. I cannot imagine the pain with that type of injury.

Which radio?

Found it in the radio manual read though it it is as clear as mud, need some to play with and see if I can make it work. One thing this 12x radio has always been a difficult radio to program it has everything I have ever needed but it has always been difficult to implement.

Thanks.

I'm good with pain, lot's of experience over the years. The sound of the impact is giving me nightmares though. An ugly sound is still in my head, it needs to go away.

Tahnks.

I can imagine that sound impacts you. I was with a guy when he was cranking a giant scale plane and the plane came loose from the anchor and lunged up on his legs at full throttle. His only reaction was to put his hand out to prevent disaster. Which of course his hand went into the prop.

There was only three of us at the field that day. The ambulance was within about 20 minutes that day which was a plus. The end result was he only dislocated his finger and cut his legs some. It was a wooden prop which probably saved him.

Before we realized that he had not lost his fingers, we spent some time looking around for his fingers because he just knew he had lost them and was afraid to look at his hand. The sudden shock I suppose was why he felt they were cut off. In the end it turned out good, but could have been really bad.

People that make jokes and are callous to this stuff should take some time to be more considerate about it. It takes about a second of time for a man's life to change because of an accident.

How true and well said it does not take much to really ruin your life.
