Tyler's Tutor II (not to be confused with my nephew Tyler)
« on: August 14, 2010, 05:52:04 PM »
Tyler must have been a popular name a few years ago.

Any way some may remember that I was rebuilding a Tutor II for a one of the guys son that wants to learn how to fly Control Line.

Here is the new pilot with his new plane. We are still waiting to get him on the handle. The heat is just killer in our neck of the woods!

Looks great.  H^^ How tall is the young lad.  Could use a racing pilot if he's tall enough.   LL~ LL~

Hey Doc,
Sorry to say he is vertically challenged. But I don’t hold that against him. He is in his third year in collage, and is now part of the leadership team at his church. Well grounded and now we have to just get him well rounded. Round and round in the circle that is.

Well, in reality one of the best pilots I ever had was barely 5 foot.  90% of the time all you sen was the lines to the airplane.  Then he would pop out between the other pilots.  He could also do the full AMA stunt pattern with a VooDoo on Fox Combat Special on crank case pressure.  He went Navy and served his time and never came back to model planes.   H^^
