Shooting the Breeze

...another breezy but flyable morning

Just like yesterday, it was windy home but there was just a moderate breeze at the field, so I had the Walrus up and flying in no time. The breeze picked up noticeably a little later, but nothing too much to disturb Wally's stable nature.



For a little entertainment I stood at the paddock fence and guided the Walrus around the trees and on low passes over the paddocks. Low flying is good fun although something l only try if conditions are stable - it doesn't take much to drop the plane a few feet onto the deck!

I'm pretty comfortable with inverted flight now; it certainly doesn't give me the creepy feeling when I first tried it. However, despite increasing aptitude I still don't do it near the ground, giving myself the option of a positive loop pull-out just in case...
