Flight Log - 2017-10-21 - Richard Holmes's Mega Mosquito
Built stock except that shock cord is 1/2" braided elastic with a replaceable Keelhaul®©™ leader secured t' t' motor mount, and an Estes 24mm retainer was used instead o' a hook. Begad! Because I have plenty o' yellow in me fleet already I painted this one orange and black (Rustoleum 2X).

Next I flew was t' Mega Mosquito on an E9-6. T' Mega Mo was overdue for some air time — seems I last flew it more than two years ago, which seems nuts, shiver me timbers, but that’s what me records say — and it’s orange and black, arrr, so this be t' time t' do it. Good clean flight, though t' delay was too long. Avast, me proud beauty! I hadn’t noticed that previously with t' E9-6. but maybe E9-4 is a better choice. No photos.
