TRIBUTE TO THE OLD MOWER
 
   I must say after 30 yrs of flying models I was looking for something different to fly.  So in July of 2003 I saw a add for a flying lawnmower ( That’s right 8 yrs ago I looked it up ) and thought that would be fun and different.  What I didn't know was just how much fun it is and had no idea it would last this long.   Like all that see it , it is almost unbelievable to see.
 
It is a crowd pleaser.  It flew at the Madres airshow for 5 yrs and this year I had to decline because the old girl was worn out.  I know it was missed.   It was and still is the hardest plane I have ever flown.   After many crashed and engine outs and repairs it was getting to be more and mode difficult to fly.  The old girl was getting heaver with every repair and it was harder and harder for it to get around the flight path.   So the time has come to retire it and give it a well deserved spot in the Hanger.   I learned a lot from you old girl, you have been fun.
