John,
Figured you were probably busy but glad your'e still around.
Mr. Mulligan has been nearly completely repaired and ready to maiden again....lots of time and work involved a little challenging but none the less satisfying. I'm pretty certain it suffered a signal loss due to a bad AR6200 satellite cable. It's been replaced and all looks good.
Spoke to Josh once about 6mo ago. He said he got engaged and is living in N.of Austin in Pfleugerville but intends to get back into flying again.
Mike and I visited a few months ago at a Killeen RC flying event and have talked on the phone a few time but that's it. He hasn't flown since leaving the Army I don't think but still wants to.
Stay in touch I hang out over on RCG Groups and have a blog there but still check back here once in a while.

Hey, John....! I thought I'd drop by and say hello. How's it going....?

My most recent maiden was a Great Planes 1930's Golden Age Racer "MISTER MULLIGAN". It took me awhile to get the nerve up but turned out it was not that scary at all. Loved the way it flew up until the third sortie when it lost signal and crashed. What a heart break....it's being rebuilt and will fly again though.

Sure miss flying with you. I'm hanging out on RC Groups most of the time for the last few years but haven't forgotten the good times we had, brief as they were.

John - Just got home , it's late but caught you online so thought I'd check in and bid you hello....
Check ou the CMP Spitfire 50-54. I highly reccommend it. Best scale profile out there and incredible price....(Nitroplanes.)
Later bud

Nah, just rain. And lots of it - you know, Rain 'Texas Style' lol Yeah I have some Fam up OK way and they got slammed with snow and ice.

Well I know Sill is a ways away from us but I know the three of us would do anythign to make it happen - so keep that in mind ;)

Cheers hoss!

John,

Just dropping you a line to see how you are doing, I heard you guys are having a colder than normal winter over there yeah? Looking forward to your TDY so we can all get together and catch up - I am looking at building a Yardbird F-22 like yours, and if I have it together you can fly it while you are here lol

Take care,
josh

Excellent buy on that charging station John. What a nice deal and youll like that Cell Pro charge a bunch.

Happy New year bud.

Dick

Thanks for the Christmas Greeting John - very same to you and yours.

FYI - It was snowing and sleeting earlier...nice flying wx eh?

All the best,
Dick

Hows it going bud?

John- Good to hear form you. I hope you'll be back with the family soon for the Holidays. What's Thanksgiving like in Germany????? Don't tell me.... Bratwurst? Right?

Nothing from Mike real recently but his last said he'd be home come November. I think I recall a post from him somewhere on here. We're looking forward to seeing him back and getting into the air.

I picked up a Haikong Spitfire NIB at a swap meet in Austin last weekend. I'm pretty impressed with it. Plans are to add some details and paint it olive green and light brown camo. Maybe add some retracts if posssible. I need to study up on that. I'm curious what motor you have in yours?

Well, you take care. Josh and I will have some great flying to look forward to in a few months. Maybe some grilled Johnsonville Brats thrown in too.

Rock On Radar

hey John- Josh and miss you and hope tho get together again sometime real soon. So git yer bunns back to Texas we need some normal flying company.
Hope all is well and your getting some flying in.
Dick
