Close Call

Get your popcorn ready cause here come another semi-crash story.

Well today I had the most exciting flight I've had in a long time. I decided to try out a new field across the road from my house. Well it's a little cramped with a few small trees and a big ceder tree on the left side of where I was sitting. But I figured I could manage all of that. Well I took off uneventfully and flew for about 7 mins. I was getting real comfortable so I decided to try one of my newer skills of doing multiple barrel rolls in a row. Well I think I got up and down confused in one of the loops and something weird happend with the plane and I panicked. I lost a ton of altitude and when I was able to get the plane right side up and flying level I was heading right toward the ceder tree I was somehow able to turn to the left just enough and just brushed the side of the tree with my right wing . Well needless to say my heart was racing more than it has in a long long time. I was already in panic mode so I decided to land it, well I come in way hot and noticed that I was running out of room really quick thanks to the little trees that ran perpendicular to my runway at the end of it. Well I hit the stick up and broke the landing gear. I think that I came away good with just some landing gear to glue back on through all that. Just figured I'd share that with you all.
