Flew 3 2500' aerotows this morning. Three awesome launches, tows, and landed on my feet every time! Kinda dreading going back to my NorthWing in May. The Falcon is so easy to fly and land!

Congratulations! I look forward to being in the air with you over Bristol in the coming months.

I did! But I have it have it all geared up for towing and am not sure I want to drag it back and forth.

Oh, my apologies.  I didn't think that was still happening.  Sorry Tim...it's old anyway.

Hey, Tim

Sorry I haven't been been over to Willowtree more.  We have been Wintering in nearby Webster at an RV "resort".  I still haven't been back in the air since last Spring's weak link injury.

Big fat Florida thermals to cloud base will be starting to happen more often now.  Hope you snag one before going home!

THAT's why I got rid of my Freedom ...
The Freedom flew great ...    liked it better than my S2, but couldn't land the thing well to save my life.
Get a Falcon (or s S2) for home. 
You won't regret it.
Congrats on the flights BTW  : )
