      I only count outdoor airplane flying, indoor and quads don't count for my daily flying goal.

            Flew the B-17 yesterday and this morning, and played around with some air to air video work.

                Didn't know you were into 3D Ryan? I do more 3D than anything else, but as you know, I love flying almost anything lol

                  I enjoy flying everything I can get my hands on. The Techone Arrow will be getting filmed soon. I just released the build and am also using it to get familiar with the Detrum radios and gyro receivers.

                  I have the opportunity to fly a lot of planes. It's nice to come out of my comfort zone. I'm often pleasantly surprised. Sport jets are a blast as well which was a big surprise to me at first as well.

                  I love a challenge. 3D will always be that for me.

                    That's what I love about it. The challenge. There's always something in 3D to push your skills.

                    I really enjoy the little 3D practice foamys though. I stress a bit when I'm flying my giant scale 3D plane (over 2 grands worth). or one of my larger nice balsas. The foamys take the stress of crashing out of it when your pushing new tricks. Here's my lil 38 edge, even though it's my smallest plane, it's still a great 3D performer and great fun to fly. ;)

                          I agree sport jets are fun. That is something I just discovered recently. And it was a big surprise to me since I fly exclusively scale birds. I will probably always have at least one sport jet of some kind. Right now mine is a Super Scorpion.

                            Thanks mate. As I said above, 3D is my passion though I'm happy flying almost anything. Our weather has been very weird this year so far. Heat waves over here in the west and big storms and non stop rain in the east. Very few cyclones this season though which is always good. ;)

                              Maidened my UMX Wildcat and Parkzone T-28. Fixed the decalage issue with my UMX P-47 and fixed my prop adapter for the Cub. Overall, a good day.

                                Great stuff Shirty as usual...As for the YouTube video, yeah it's another bug in the system. We had it working for a while then it went back...We're looking in to it.

                                As for what I flew today, I flew my Volantex ASW 28 for about 2 minutes before a storm came through and made things really interesting in a hurry!

                                No ASW 28 was harmed during the flight. :)
