So I picked up my aircraft from having some maintenance this weekend and shot some footage of the gentle shake down. When I got home I did the following to make you smile in the morning.

 Does put a smile on one's face! What's life without unusual attitudes!

OK, now I really can  blame this on the camera. The camera is positioned on the front dash. The Canopy  Arch that you can see in the shot is about 2 inches back down the plane from the  lens position. This a REALLY wide angle camera, maybe 170Deg. In fact if you  look closely you can see the wing tips in the video. (see picture  attached.)

  

 So both my heads are at  least normal sized, it's a trick of the camera, honest )

Ok Gus, now I want to see more of your bird, pretty.  Does it still have the "swallow" tail, I know some were changed.

Just jealous that you got to fly and I'm in the office working to pay the bills.

 Sure, sure..blame it on the camera...for the small head that is. Hey, I have a good urologist friend that can help with that small head thing. ;>))!

 Kidding of course. Really did enjoy the video and it certainly put smile on my face. Maybe I'll get my little Samsung

 Sports Camcorder with it's remote camera up an going this weekend.

As you can see from the  picture the fin has been attacked with an angle grinder. The fin was originally  just as long as the ribbed section goes but the previous owner added an extra 4  inches of rudder, great for knife edge but not so great for snap rolls as if you  puut full boot in the airspeed dies off real quick. Better to just use about  3/4, but fun however you try it.
