My friend Frank Carlisle took video of my flight. He did not edit out the problems we had as this makes it a true story.

Hope you enjoy watching what ends up as a sucessful flight.

Frank, fantastic video. Yes Clancy is the pilot, but the plane is the star.

After all these years it looks like Clancy was a little nervous. Thanks to all involved with the video and flight.

Yep that was a way cool video Frank. I think you missed your calling. You should have been in TV productions.

Clancy great job on the Taube!

I am improving. At least this flight the ground loop was at the end, not at the beginning like I did with my P-38 in 1983.

I remember the Virginia Beach NATS in which the little lady came out with the cart on wheels to pick up peices.

OUCH!! I try to forget that flight. That was my C-7A Caribou that went free flight across the circle and crashed right in front of the judges.

It earned it's third FAI-F4B NATS trophy that year.

The model was 76 In. WS, 60 In. nose to tail, with 2 HP 40 engines. It all fit in a milk crate after that flight.
