P61 Black Widow at Lilydale
It was a bit blowy down at Lilydale today. Most were packed up by the time I got there. I did manage to get a couple of flights in. The first one went dead-stick because I'd left the throttle trim at zero so when I did a stall turn and cut the engine back to idle, I killed it. Had plenty of height and glided back easily to the field.
Later in the morning, someone came down with a scale P-61 Black Widow. It didn't get in the air while I was there. Here's some video of firing it up and taxi runs..
Here's a link to a torrent of this video. It's a 5MB xvid video hosted on my home machine so due to d'load limits, it's only up between midnight and midday. Someone please let me know if the link works. thanks.
