This happened here in Michigan. I actually spoke to the the pilot who flew this aircraft. Great story how he managed to bring the jet in for a landing talking to the wing man all the way down. He couldn't see over the instrument panel due to the canopy being gone. For those that have the FW F-15 here is a new scheme hot out of the paint shop. Noah is home doing well, but still no vision.

Thanks for the update on Noah...I will pray for him!
Had 3 more flights today, for a total of 9 so far. Have pushed the batteries all the way back and so far have had good landings. I'm realizing there is more I can pull with elevator, and back off the throttle still. Probably the last flight for this year..I'll swap the landing gear when they're available and I need to do the same with my Stinger 90. What a great summer! Rob

Today was the last day of my vacation, was able to get my wife to take these, first time she has taken pics of any of my EDF jets while in the air, not to bad for her first time. First pic is ready for flight, the rest is takeoff, retracts going up, few low passes and the landing and taxi back. What a hog, flies awesome.19 Photos
