Title: Brett's SN article
Post by: peabody on March 02, 2015, 02:26:31 PM

Thanks to Brett for the terrific piece in Stunt News!

Brett explains dealing with, and preventing, air leaks in the NVA.

Very nicely done with clear pictures!

Thanks Brett!

Which Stunt News?  Do I have a copy yet?

Stopping leaks is easy -- just pot the thing in epoxy.  It's stopping leaks and having it still work that gets problematic.

  Thanks guys. Any notion of ego inflation is easily obviated by the incompetence I have shown to date in getting Bobby the stuff he needs, when he needs it. My performance on that, to date, is utterly disgraceful.

But Bob - don't you throw yourself under the bus instead!

Considering your recent bout of forgetfullness, I can see how Stunt News gets delayed...

One day at the flying field:

Bob's buddy: "Gee Bob, you just put up a really nice stunt pattern"

Bob: "Thanks!  Hmmm, stunt pattern, stunt pattern.  Gee, seems like I was going to do something having to do with stunt patterns.  It's right at the tip of my tongue, but I can't remember what it was.  Oh well, I'm sure it will come to me."

Bob's buddy: "Well, your plane was flying so nicely, you must have read that stuff that Walker wrote on trimming in Stunt News."

Bob: "Stunt News!  Stunt news!  Ahh, guys I have to roll up my lines and get home, I got stuff to do...."

 ;D

happens to me all the time...

Bob is being very charitable above, which I appreciate. My performance doesn't meet my own standards, but I will keep muddling through.
