Tom Morris converted a few more today.
« on: September 10, 2011, 04:23:43 PM »
After all the official flights today Tom let anyone that wanted fly his electric plane. I will name any names, but after flying it a few former Top NATs pilots will be building a electric plane. One advantage is they can fly at a local parking lot and consisant runs.

And Ryan is sold hook line and sinker.

That is what Bobby Hunt told me at VSC this year.   Electric is quiet and he gets flights in while people are still asleep.   H^^

Paul,

I flew his plane at Paduca, I was already convinced before and it just reinforced that.

I flew it at Paducah too and aquired two AXI2826/10's the next day.  Today Tom let me make my second official flight with it in Memphis.  With a good handle it would have been great.

I heard a rumor that an electric plane captured a spot on the 2012 US FAI world championships team!  I guess they work.
