It was a little cooler here today, with a light breeze. Got a few flights with a yak. It looks to be a much nicer flying day tomorrow.

Weather looks good here today but I have to go pour some basement walls and make some money. Maybe it will still be nice this afternoon when I get back

7 flights before the wind really picked up! Now to spend time with the family for the rest of the weekend

Bored out of my mind, I look up at the darkening sky and I ponder....."Why"??? "Why do you have to be like this?" Then I thought about it. Ah heck, no dark sky is gonna stop me. I loaded up the Pilot Edge and headed for the field. Once there, I was surprised to find next to now wind and though it was over cast, I figured the Purple and Black Edge will be just fine against the Grey. I said to myself, "I came to fly". And fly I did. I kinda beat the snot outta that little airframe. Straight up vertical climbs, stall and snap into a wicked knife edge spin, release the rudder and flatten out into an inverted flat spin. Drop the throttle, rotate and harrier in for a one inch off the deck hover. Punch out to do some blenders then attempting some rolling circles with the Pilot. Up again full steam, turn down wind...(It was starting to kick up by the second flight) roll over inverted, drop one wing slightly and push up into some really awesome Pop-Top Cartwheels. Ok, so I was by myself but I had a great time flying today. Damn, I hated coming home. But...tomorrow is another day.

I at least got out for a little while this afternoon. I put the first flight of the year on my heli. Even though I was only there for a little while, I had fun and nobody complained or told me I was breaking nonexistent rules. It was a good day.

Not without costing me money though. I bought a 35% Edge sight unseen from a club member. It was too cheap to pass up and this guy doesn't own any junk so we'll see.

I finally know what it feels like to be sliced bread. Two young men from the college were at the field tonight when I went out and thought that I did some pretty nice flying. I even had to put an extra flight on the yak cause the one fella called his wife to come out and watch me fly! judging by the drool I think I have them hooked on big gas planes

Well it's about time Kelly. All work and no flying makes for a very dull boy.

Oh awesome. Any good deal is worth taking a little risk on right?
