Sam Maidens His JW

After working on his plane for ever, I "helped" him finish it. He hadn't flown since he was 15, so he let me trim it out, but he flew like a pro after that.


It wasn't very breezy, but we risked chucking it at our little local hill. I flew the first flight, and got it too slow, and stalled it. Best to just let it run fast, even in light lift. The second flight was successful, and after trimming it out, I handed it to Sam.

Ah, idaho.

After about 15 minutes the lift died, so he landed it. Just barely squeezed over the lip of the hill.

Not a long flight, be enough to see that it really scoots along if you let it.

Now we need some wind.
