Had my own warbirds festival today, since our club held our annual one on Saturday, the weather was bad and the flight patterns were full so I didn't get to fly as much as I wanted (but then I never get enough flying no matter what). The weather still isn't great, but just getting out is reward enough.

Also threw in my Yak for a little acrobatic fun. Although this Yak was discontinued, I've had it for several years and I love flying it-have 2 in case I destroy the first (yes, several mishaps but so far have fixed them all so the 2nd is still a virgin).Hugh "Wildman" Wiedman

Broke out the seawind today again, man it's so good to fly at home again. One day I'm gonna get with my dad about moving the fence over by the driveway so I can make a landing strip for my land based planes as well. Anyway ran three packs through her and it was three total perfection flights with touch and goes and everything has a glide slope from 80 feet up to touchdown is right at 150 yards dead stick, just crazy numbers. Absolutely a beautiful plane to fly off water. Flight off the grass field of our club it handled perfectly take off to landing. I would definitely give it a 5 star rating for that, the only weak point is the nose gear retract unit slips the pushrod from time to time, but it does takes some serious force to do so, so the entire plane would receive 4 stars as a whole. As assembly and fit and finish are totally 5 star worthy. In other words the fly zone seawind is one hell of a plane across the board.
