Any new machines lately ?

Happy Days:
Well, that looks pretty impressive! :clap:  The plane I mean, not Fred. (Although Fred can be impressive he’s certainly not very pretty………………..but this is very off topic.)

Let’s see how you did it Fred, …..probably all in one night knowing you! :D

I’d have thought you would have preferred flaps rather than airbrakes. If the lift is light a few degrees of flap could help you get it up. (Er, :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  :lol: ……..oh, never mind)

So when will we be seeing this beast in the air?

p.s. Your lawn needs cutting,……..the shrubs could do with some pruning as well. .........What does Rachel do with her time anyway!

Perhaps she beats up cheeky penguins?

joe:
It's a good look Fred. Not quite sure what it's saying. Maybe "Oh bollox now I have to build this thing!" Or "now look what I got myself into!"

I should say nothing as I will have to cut the wings for the beast  :?  :?

Fred:
:lol:
Yeah, more thinking "Joe, where are fecking finished set of wings !"  :lol:  :P

I'll pass on the messages to Rachel.. She will deal with you later !  :P  :P
But sound like my next week end job alright...  :!:

Keith, for big wingspan gliders, I found that Airbrakes are much more precise and generate less unwanted effects.
Also, all profiles are not good with flaps, sometimes adding flaps can generate more problems than anything else !
I keep the wing clean and simple this time  :D

Oh, that's interesting Fred, I wasn't aware of that fact. I'd assumed that flaps would improve the lift of any wing.:?:

Thanks
