David Fitzgerald in São Paulo
« on: June 29, 2015, 02:25:14 PM »
Dear friends

Last saturday we had the honor of receiving David Fitzgerald at our field. He was between flights and what a great gentleman he is!
I think I was the luckiest, since he flew my Thundergazer and gave some very good trim tips... And I got to interview him...
Here are the vídeos...
Hope you guys like it... There's a little intro in Portuguese, but the interview is in English...

Marcus,

Nice interview.  David is a great flyer and a fine gentleman.  We are lucky to have him here in Northern California and have the opportunity to talk to him and see his flying on a regular basis.  Thanks for posting.  :)

Marcus, Thanks for doing the interview with David.  He is truly a great flier and a real gentleman.  I would compliment you on your poise in presenting the interview and you have shown to be a true gentleman also.

I have one of the engines that you mentioned from Kaz Minato on order already but they are not quite available yet.  After talking with Kaz I'm convinced that they will be a fine stunt engine.

Thanks Again,
Randy Cuberly

Marcus, thanks for a great video with David.   I've known of David for so many years from the magazines and the USA NATS.  At one NATS I was flying intermediate using Ted's "DOCTOR" design.  Great flying flapless design.  David and Ted were looking at my plane.   Then David asked if I was done with the flying for the day.   He pointed out I had a broken spar.   Couldn't thank him enough.   Again thanks for the videos.
