My Posts This: Topic Forum | Thanks for a great funfly guys - it was 9pm and dark, most of us were out of fuel and still nobody wanted to leave.
Yesterday's flying was THE MOST radical 3D flying ever seen in Toronto. Milles and Furys ruled the airspace over Markham yesterday. Chris (sluggo) was in full sim mode all day and layed the smack down BIG time with his Mille. Darren answered back with a BIG can of whoop-ass - it was a hell of a show.
Congrats to Kay (KCT) for winning the auto contest by 1/2" - you rock man, gonna practice for you next time
Good stuff all involded - I'll have pics up later.
Hope to have some vids of yesterday's highlights up sometime this week.
1. Darren - death spiral with pull-out at less than 1 ft in 2 ft tall hay - the Fury disappeared in the hay - it was gone - then it was back and yep, he meant to do that
2. Darren - nose down knife-edge pass across the field with blades cutting the grass - the short grass < 1" - don't think he'll ever do that one again
3. Chris - knife edge piro at about 6 ft of the deck - this too was intentional
4. Chris - LOW travelling forward flip - blades cut short grass - again one time only
A&J's Arden few his new Mille/OS70 for the first time. This guy has gotten many, MANY guys started in the shop parking lot (including me), but has not flown his own heli for 5 years. He was inverted and whipping around after the 3rd tank. He had so much fun he came back after dark to fly some more.
Thanks to Brian, Mark, Chris and Dennis for making it happen. Darren, Chris, Kevin, Kay, David, Mike Z., Mark, Jeff, Victor and everyone else who raised the bar yesterday - good show, you guys rock.
