It flew...until I crashed...

(1/3) > >>

Wayne Collier:
Finally got time and good weather on the same day.  Made three flights before an excessively hard landing.  On the second flight I stayed mostly level until the plane ran out of fuel.  On flight three I tried a loop, stalled, hit the ground hard, broke the tail, then the plane bounced onto its wheels and took off again. Made several laps before the final crash.  Below is a picture of the plane ready for flight number three.

Wayne Collier:
Two in air pictures.

Wayne Collier:

      Analysis:  Plane flew fair even without tail, but not great.
                    Pilot flew, sort of...
                    Twenty foot lines to fit in area where flight took place = I'm glad I didn't use that APC prop today.

Clint Ormosen:
