Sept 2010 Glide in
gerryb:
hey john p, that was one of the most graceful launches i have ever seen!
it's obvious your years as a ballet dancer has stood you in good stead, the fluid motion, the release, the follow through and recovery from the cat's tumble....extraordinary stuff! i would have given you douze points if both legs had been straight up as you went over. impressive none the less, well done, john
billscottni:
Lovely model Ger. Colour scheme is striking. Glad to hear it flew as well as it looks.
Certainly a model to be proud of :clap: :clap:
gerryb:
thanks bill. i had a collection of photos of the full size in several rm mags so deciding to go with the scheme was the easy part. i covered all the silver parts in silver solartex in one night. the red solartex took about 3 weeks! easy to do, just so much of it

Hi Guys
WOW! what a great weekend, I had more flights over the two days than I have had over the last two months. Thanks to the Slope rebels for once again a great weekend.
Yes that big glider, well I give it all I had, to get it airborn, all 12kgs of it!, I have never thrown a model that heavy before, however, what a model, it flew fantastic. Also I did not get any photos this time, sorry guys, I was just to busy flying.
Happy Days:
Try offering that vid to “You’ve been Framed” You never know, they might give you some dosh for it :D , although they might think it had been staged :?: …………….Well just a thought.
