Title: Flying with an old friend today.
Post by FLC astroflyer on Jun 21^st, 2018 at 3:47pm

Flying with an old friend today. In more ways than one. This is a Vmar Twin Otter ARF that Ed Harpell bought back in 2012. We assembled it together in my basement and I test flew it on September 25, 2012. Ed later sold it and I acquired it yesterday from a friend who convinced me I should have it.

Five flights on it today and it's a nice gentle flyer, not overly powered, but a sweet touch and go machine. My favoriute thing to do with an airplane.
