i had 2 great flights today, i asked Dave what it flew like....guess what he couldn't remember.....so just took off without any problems......very happy with it......fly's lovely......maybe i won't take as long next time!........

Thanks guy's........
just spent the last couple of days checking my air lines for the retracts......had a slow leak....not what you want when everything been secured with tie raps......any way have changed some of the 'Tees' and the air valve, using a robart one now which seems to have solved the problem.......left air over night and tested them this morning......worked first time........now that has been done will also add some restrictors to slow the retracts up and down and will add the doors to the mains.....
i'll get someone with a video camera next time........
thanks for looking in....
cheers
Dave
