Title: Bonus Day for the Turbinator
Post by Entropist on Dec 5^th, 2017 at 11:46pm

Cold and wet, but calm and a December bonus day. Al flew the new Turbinator well, but a buggy nose wheel servo made for a long walk after a fine landing.

Nice looking plane and flying it in Dec on a bonus day is awesome!
Those pictures make the houses and buildings in the background look really close but I know they are km's away.
Anyone else see the two bald eagles on the power pole in the background in picture 1? I guess they were handing over the airspace for the jet. ;D

I just bet those eagles were pi$$ed, jealous over the "new guy" at the field.

Congrats Al, on another fine build..and hey congrats on another birthday..!
You look very satisfied in this picture..!

Thanks for the kind words guys. The plane is a great grass field flyer. It's a lot easer to take off and land then my spitfire.
Bill, it's not my birthday yet. Don't be rushing things. lol 8-)
