[NSRCA-discussion] unknowns

[Woodward, Jim (US SSA)]

Ed - I know you worked hard and invested again in getting the 40% Carden out of mothballs, just to encourage yourself and other with the F3M flying.  Thanks for doing so.  The sequence is difficult.  While flying it myself, I did like the challenge of making the 40% plane fit in the box, and having centered maneuvers again.  I'm not sure where it will all go, but thanks for making the effort to give it a shot!!!
Jim

It's funny.  I brought my 40% Carden out of mothballs last weekend to work on the F3M stuff and all I wanted to do was fly it like a pattern airplane.  Ofcourse it doesn't quite measure up, but I found that I really have no enthusiasm left for wapping through rolls where the only skill involved is being able to stop on time.  I admit, on the last flight of the day I digressed and did about 10 minutes of 3d-ish garbage, until I finally realized that it was really not very satisfying.  Foamies are more fun these days than knocking the sticks around on a 40 % gasser.   I guess I'm just getting old...
