And up here we call them Harvards.:)
It is one plane you don't have to look up to identify. The sound of the shock waves coming off the prop tips as they fly by is unmistakable.
Back on topic, I like how the "flying level" motor break-in flight turned into stunting :)
Hard to just fly round and round with a stunt model.
Deric Herrmann:
Is that a Racer X sticker on the tail? :)

Another good video. I too break engines in by flying. Set rich and slowly go in with the needle. Remember flying low to the ground makes engine run richer. Looks like you have a winner. Thought about you with all the shut down of activities. The local race tracks are getting back in action, but I guess the state and county fairs are a no go. Too bad the politicians don't have to foot the bill out of their pocket instead of the tax payers. Any way glad to see you are still with us. D>K

It is fun to fly so far. Beefed up tailwheel and landing gear. Trying different props.
Yes...all my work cancelled.
I retired from my act.
Flying is a nice break from politics.
