Out On Manoeuvres



Strip the props off after the photo-shoot as we have to do the static loading test that involves suspending the airframe from above with me installed.

I've propped it up on wheelie-bins before with me in it, but swinging from the rafters is the real deal and the engineer says the barn is free on an opportunity basis.

At some point I'll need to mod the roof-rack, but the airframe sits on its rubber feet on the roof with just a pair of bungees, plus there aren't many rackable aircraft out there anyway.

Mental note therefore to make the power-units detachable from the get-go.
