Title: Another reason to fly electric
Post by: Robert Redmon on July 29, 2011, 09:27:12 AM

Dina, my wife of over 40 years, has been my pit person, holder, caller (rc pattern), and all around good sport since we have been married. She has always maintained  a pair of "special" flying shoes that are fuel soaked and nasty.  Same is true for the rest of her outfit. This loyal and unflagging support has actually grown since I started experimenting with electric power this year. It is now SHE who is pushing ME to convert (totally) to electric. Sure makes spending that money easy. Just today she observed that I needed a back up plane. (I have several, actually... but all are castor and smoke makers.) Ain't life grand!  #^

Yep, I have even ran my motors up on the house to check loadings. It caused a raised eyebrow from the boss but I would not dare to try that with one of my Oliver Tigers.  n1

Hi Bob
I think it is GREAT that your life partner is also your flying partner.

That your spousal unit ALSO insists you buy some more airplanes - that just makes me jealous!!!
