'SPIT' roasted FB

[The Hangar]

Oh, I feel the need to wax poetic! I'm going to spin some words like a tornado spins the wind! Poetry, right here, right now.

Just for you, @bracesport! My greatest, most wonderful, most deepest and profound words of wisdom that I have ever written or ever read at anywhere or anytime.

Are you ready? Here it is:









FLY. Fly. Fly.

No lie.

The poem’s profound,
And it’s beauty astounds
To all who are bound
To read this and frown
😂😂😂

 

[buzzbomb]

The poems are like thoughts.
All the whys, and why nots.
Why do we do 'em?
When we can all see through 'em?

 

[buzzbomb]

You needn't reply.
We needn't ask why.

A poem is one thing.
Not the same as the sky.

A plane in the air? That is the why.
A plane in the air is a poem in the sky.

A poem that flys, flies high, high to the sky.
So please dear @bracesport don’t be shy.
Go fly fly fly. Fly high, fly by, just go fly.

Feeling a little poetic myself so I added to your lines

 

[buzzbomb]

Supporting another
In poetry like no other
Your words do fly
Supporting another
To help him fly high

 

[buzzbomb]

While it's been fun
I'm afraid, I am done.

It's sleepy time, you see
Dreams of flight there must be

Wax poetic on another day
Meanwhile, so many planes, so little time!

 

[buzzbomb]

Ok. I let that one slide.

Don't think I was sliding
or lazy was riding

Dreams in the sky
Is where I'll be hiding

'till another day sliding
into thoughts most abiding

of dreams in the sky
on which I'll be riding.

G'night all!

Sweet flight dreams dear friend. While it’s late on your side of the world here it’s mid day so I’ll do some flying for you . Making more memories with the family while I am at it .

you crazy guys!

“‘When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,’ said Piglet at last, ‘What’s the first thing you say to yourself?’
‘What’s for breakfast?’ said Pooh. ‘What do you say, Piglet?’
‘I say, I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today?’ said Piglet.
Pooh nodded thoughtfully. ‘It’s the same thing,’ he said.” —Winnie-the-Pooh

Well it is ready to fly - servos all connected up and radio gear in - seems to balance ok - what is the actual CG measurement back from the LE?

Looks fantastic, between you and Caroline I don't know who is better, …. Take that funny thing off the front and go slope soaring.

 

[bracesport]

@Wildthing - it crosses my mind! 😀

 

[bracesport]

@Wildthing - I did the vertical thrust and it unweighted itself slightly over half throttle, so I’m guessing that’s not horrific with the 8x6! 😀

You should be ok then.

Good luck, hope you have a fantastic flight!

@bracesport. I am GO for tomorrow! I intend to put my MSBP in the air, and try a cobra. Then I'm planning on maidening @sundown57's slow flyer. Then. Then! That slippery darn spitfire is going back in the air, WooHoo!

I wish you all luck on your maiden. I may not be standing beside you, but I'll be flying, right there with you!

I challenged @bracesport to fly with me, on my Tuesday. Time zones being what they are, we're giving or taking 24 hours. Plus time to upload video. Anybody else able to take the Spitfire out in the next 24 hours or so, and fly with us in spirit?

@bracesport is taking his ONE true Spitfire out, and going for broke. Cajones. The man's got 'em! I'm just going to try to fly the darn thing. It scares the crap out of me, but I love it!

Anyone else able to fly the Spitfire in the next 24 hours? Join us in our spiritual fly-together. It's going to be fun!

raining here but we will see how the weather goes!

Sadly with the days rapidly shortening I'm working till dark today.
