Re: Except for one.... Egads, the pilot is probably coughing up dust! Still, I have to hope the flying season isn't over yet! You should still have time. |

Re: Except for one.... Winter is awesome. Flying off skis in the backyard is so cool, literally. |

 . I hope they are wrong for the farmers' sake!As far as skis on the old Phaeton... nawww...the old hands don't like the cold too much anymore. By the time I get a nitro fueled, fired up and tuned, my hands are numb. My winter flying is limited to the 3 lekkies now, slap in a battery and presto... instantaneous flying!!  You never know though.... last year after a very lousy October, we had a fantastic, warm November... may still have a chance to fly the old girl yet!! Cheers Curt |

It's only September! Unless it snows beginning October 1 in your neck of the woods, you should have plenty of time to take 'er up for a spin. PS- what's wrong with ski's in December ??

Re: Except for one.... I almost have my mojo ready to fly, just have to mount the motor and balance it. Do to work I can only fly on week ends and this summer it has been raining or the winds have been 25 KMS or more. Brad |

Re: Except for one.... If you don't fly them you can't crash them. It will still be there next spring. I managed to get all of my planes into the air at least once, with only one casualty, the Showtime 90. The T-rex 450 was just a conversation piece. Not sure if I will ever get that thing in the air. Maybe I should hang up my MOJO so it will still be airworthy next season. It's highly unlikely that I will get the Primo built this winter and I'm loving my Swany planes. Trav |

Except for one.... Well, even with all the crappy weather this year, I managed to get all my planes into the air at least once (15 nitros and 3 lekkies).  EXCEPT FOR ONE, my kit built Balsa USA Phaeton 90. Don't know how I overlooked it. I was in the garage today installing some new overhead doors and openers, when I looked up, saw it just hanging there, nicely covered up and it dawned on me that I probably will not get time to get the old warhorse into the air this year. This is the first time since I have been flying that this has happened. It almost feels like I have let the old bird down somehow.  I may just have to take it down, clean her up and at least start and run the TT.91 4st just to let her know I still care about her and have not forgotten about her totally!!  Cheers and happy flying Curt Phaeton 90 memories |
