How did they get that old crane to rotate so fast?  Must've so souped it up some.  Now I want to use a crane to fly my planes too!

That site would be real nasty if you were flying a model done up in camo . Also nice tip plates on the test model .

The film clip is marked "CONFIDENTIAL"  But my security clearance expired when I retired.  I hope I won't get into trouble viewing classified data.

Just what I needed today, another plane flying and exceeding 60 degrees attitude. At first glance I thought it was one of the top NCS members flying a Class 1 plane.

         Floyd you dont need a security clearance for material marked "Confidential".  So dont worry about any Virginia farmboys knockin' at your door!  H^^
