Here is my next one Buzzy. I call it Venom. I've posted these pictures in several threads and just now noticed that I have the vertical stab too far back. Lucky for me it's just pinned in place for the pictures.

eat.And also Carl for cooking the dogs for us. It was windy most of the day at the Hagertown flying field with a large group of people showing up to fly or watch some combat. We got in 10 rounds of combat with Dennis knocking Willis and Ike out of the air in one of the rounds.Willis and Dennis was also grounded for flying behind the pilots line in a couple different rounds because of the winds we had.I lost a plane the second round due to P.E .Overall we had a very nice day of flying with a good bunch of friends.I also passed out a couple of our plans to some friends of IKE.Maybe a couple of new combat flyers in the future.Good to see Doug again also.Ike also got 2 battery packs run thru his heli.

Sat. 4/10, a major air supremacy bout ensued at Hagerstown, IN.. 11 combatants pitted their flying & fighting skills for nine grueling 5 minute sorties. Sooo many bogies, they looked like a scene from TopGun. A truce was called abt. midway for dining and refreshments. Then back at it again for more punishment! Mild mannered "Electric Doug" got the most tail at seven uneasy pieces, w/ "Widowmaker" in hot pursuit w/ 6 kills. "Skyhawk" and Dennis scored well w/ 5 each. "Lucky" & Steve averaged out w/ 4 each, Newcomer Gary did well w/ 3 tail shots, "Toad" and "Buzzsaw" each got a taste of crepe w/ 1. Your old Rebel buddy Dr. Sandy Frank flew 1 round and got a kill. Rich was his backman and did not score. There's been a vicious rumor of dark clouds formin' o'er the Mason/Dixon line. The Hoosier Hotshots are considering an Invasion by Air of rebellious forces in the Tulsa area. LOL. "There's another one, go get him Mav!"

7-11-2010 combat
We had a great day weather wise and Carl was there faithfully feeding the crew.
Thank you once again Carl. Skyhawk(40 pts.) suggested everyone chip in a buck
towards the eats and I agree. We had a record 13 flyers with 10-11 flying each
of the 7 rounds completed. A very few midairs and good clean cuts was the order
of the day. Scrappy spent the day with us and timed/scored. Thanks Rick. Doug S.
secured "Ace" honors once again w/ 90 POINTS! Newcomer Matt(10 pts.) cut
Lucky(50pts.) for his first. Welcome aboard Matt. Very nice young man, too.
Willis (40 pts.) & Phyllis brought Hershey (Club Mascot?). Ernie and Alan H.
came to visit. Austin dropped by for a few minutes but didn't fly. Paul spent
the day w/ us and is nearly finished building his HK 600 'e' Heli. Pat joined us
for a few rounds and scored 20 pts. Jerry's coming on and scored 30 pts. Dennis
& Mark L. each scored 20 pts.. Nate didn't torment any streamers today, just his
Dad(LOL)!Rich(10pts.) & Sandy shared some planes and seemed to enjoy themselves.
Josh flew a few rounds. To those who couldn't make it this time, hope to see you
soon. All but Ike(HaHa!).
