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. Grin

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..!

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 Cool
