Another tree landing...
....this time about 40' up. Got it down with parachute cord and a big sinker. Glad I saved all the
fishing stuff. But, the airplane is a bit worse for wear. http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...1/P1010248.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...1/P1010249.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...1/P1010250.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...1/P1010251.jpg I may have to buy a few parts and learn how these buggers are held together. It's looking like the pieces that came off are held onto the fuselages with pins and silicone sealant. I suppose it makes sense. Otherwise there'd be a lot more pieces. Maybe I should stick to guns, motorcycles, photography, etc, like Harry does. |

The silicone sealant is strong enough for flight, but separates when being tugged on by parachute cord. |
