I was sending it from my phone and it was just a little messy! ;-) On Mon, Apr 15, 2013 at 5:14 PM, Bill Beavers <bill.beavers@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:bill.beavers@xxxxxxxxx>> wrote: Ended up with John C. , myself and my co-pilot Gavin being the only ones enjoying the day but we had a great time together. I had to perform a feat known as a JGTC (John Gray Tree Climb) in a place akin to the wildest Australian outback after I had an aileron malfunction on my apprentice. Tried the John "Bill Dance" Cooper fishing technique first but the plane just refused to take the bait, and when it did it kept breaking the line. So the JGTC was the last resort. Had some good flying before all that though so it was all good. Also got to give my Bixler2 with on board go pro camera a maiden flight and after getting used to the weight difference it flew great. I have posted the video on many Google plus account. If anyone wants to see it just let me know your Google email address and I'll share it with you. That camera makes some nice video (except of me). The fever gets stronger with each warm day so we will definitely need to keep taking advantage of the good weather. I'll let everyone know when we will try again, and I plan to come to the Marlower E.N.G. thing oon the 27th.
