March...an interesting month for sure!

Hey heli fans! Yea it been awhile since my last post. Covid has taken its toll, and has slowed my flying to a grinding halt. It has been 10 months the last time I went out flying. So hopefully this year will be much better. It is looking as covid isn't going away anytime soon, so it will be something we have to live with.

In the meantime, I used that time to rest and get my back healed...yea right! Wound up pulling a couple of...

And now June is just around the corner…

Well this was suppose to have posted last month. Not sure what happened! So here it is again...

The weather is finally getting better. The rain comes and goes now, but getting mostly sunny…and humid at times.

This time I brought my radio glove. It felt weird at first, but I got over it. The first flight granted me 12 minutes. The second flight, with a little carb tuning, gained 2 more minutes,...
