Title: Stunt in Stuttgart, Germany?
Post by: Brad B on May 28, 2008, 10:23:30 PM

 I am moving to Stuttgart, Germany in about 3 weeks and I was wondering if anyone had any experience flying over there.  I didn't think that any of my planes would make the trip safely so I left EVERYTHING back in long term storage.  Should I buy an engine or 2 here in the states or should I wait and buy something over there that runs that FIA fuel.  Do they even sell nitro/caster fuels over there?  Do they make stunt engines that run with no nitro?  Will my AMA cover me or do I need to join yet ANOTHER organization? Should I just not fly for a couple of years until I get back over here?  I am already regretting not taking any of my CL stuff.  Any suggestions would be GREAT.  Thanks in advance...

Brad, leave all of those regrets behind, this the opportunity of a lifetime. Dive in and go for it. Get new stuff, meet new people and enjoy. Here's a start.

Brad

I would take a couple of engines with you, they are easy to pack. I used to go over on business trips a few years ago and really appreciate the hospitality that was shown to me. Thanks to Christoph, I have flown in a couple of contest over there and these are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. I really enjoyed the time spent at the contests and the people I have meet.

Regards
Robert

Hi

 No, they don't make stunt engines that run without nitro in Germany. You'd better move to Ukraine or Russia for that. ;) L
