We flew the Akromaster with both hands on the handle for about ten laps before he was on his own.

(The facepainting was from a birthday party earlier in the day)

Corbett is 4 going on 5 in April. He can fly and land an indoor electric heli on the floor without damage. This week we're putting a heli pad on the dining room table.

Flying model planes is difficult here in Albuquerque (Cedar Crest) at 7,000 ft. Engine OS 15 FP - Fuel 15% itro 20% oil.

That's terrific! It's great to be outdoors, in the fresh air socializing, while flying planes, and ignoring the indoor computer games. Congrats!

I was wondering about the face coloring. I figured it was just grandpa being ornery with Photoshop.

Howard,

My activity is a subordinate activity to Corbett attending his schoolmate, Abby's birthday party wher they did face painting.

The plane is ready to fly again on Wednesday if I can find an 8-4 prop in Albuquerque.
