Retroplane... In Ireland !

Happy Days:
Well thank you for your kind words Lothar. (They are a pleasant change from some of the abuse I normally get from certain members of this forum :lol: )

Unfortunately I don't find building/ flying scale models very exciting. I prefer to fly acro' models in 60Km/h winds. I like to feel my heart pounding in my chest, then I can be sure I'm still alive! :D .

So, unfortunately, wherever Retroplane is held next year I wont be there.

But one day I do hope to have the pleasure of seeing you back on Mt. Lienster. Then we will spend many, many hours talking, laughing, and flying together. I would like that.

Of course we still have this forum to stay in contact, so for now I say,

Lothar, auf wieden horen.

Keith.

Well Keith,

i can tell You, if You've made Your own drawings on the computer, if You've seen Your millingmaschine making the ribbs and frames and so on, and when You build on Your plane for months with plywood and glue,

then You will feel your heart beating very hard in Your cheast, You will be wet in all Your clothes and You need some rubber between Your knees to protect them whlie swingeing against each other :lol:

I can tell You, it doesn't look as spectacular as acro-flying at wind of 60km/h (what is it miles per hour? :wink: ), but it can be the best kick of adrenalin You ever get. :shock:

think about it.... :mrgreen:

Viele Grüße

Lothar
