    "Depends on the day." LOL
    ROFL - can I ever relate to that.

      Had a fun day at my club field today. Flew my P-38 (against a 1100mm Zero), Freewing Mossie, PZ FW-190 (maidened, a new-to-me plane), Freewing F-86, and a foamy wing (Protech Vortex, with a Power 10 motor and 7x6 prop). I absolutely love flying my Lightning and Sabre. What great models they are!!! I can't wait for my 1.6m Spitfire to come in.

        I'm 1.5 hrs south, in Huntsville, AL. I am headed back up to Tullahoma this weekend, too. I have a high-power model rocket launch outside of Manchester on Saturday, and will stay the night with a friend and go to the Warbird Fly-in on Sunday.

                  We're having a new runway dedication event that day that's open to the public and I'm doing the warbird show and demo there with my buddy Jared so I'll be taking and flying a bunch of different planes. The AMA sent me a nice plaque (dated July 22, 2017) and pin, they said they never had anyone do this so they don't have a patch.

                          Thanks guys, it's been really fun and now it's just a natural thing for me to fly everyday...I flew four hours solid today and only stopped to change batteries and take a wizz ;)

                          The Hobby Squawk community has been very encouraging and has taught me so much, flying everyday has helped me put what I've learned here to use and has made me a better pilot.

                            You know I feel blessed to call you a friend and I am proud of you and your accomplishments. Looking forward to spending time with you next Saturday as the club dedicates the new runway and you celebrate achieving your 1 year goal. :Cool: It is because of this forum that we were able to meet and I am really glad that happened.

                                We flew a bunch of stuff today, one of our new members brought over his new FMS P-51 and a Night VisionAire and I got to fly both of them...the Night VisionAire is a must have. Then I maidened my FMS FireFly, it did great look forward to getting it out at night. Then we watched the quad guys go crazy on the course while I flew one of our guys drones, crazy good pics and videos.

                                The last one is an overhead of my bunker...

                                  I got out early this morning and flew because we are headed out of town on a camping trip and wanted to make sure I got my daily flight in.

                                    Took the Thunderbolts and the Little Bird out early this morning to beat the heat. Conditions were almost dead calm, and it was too good a day to pass up flying!
