ASM Flying Fortress

That is the nuts Phil.....cant wait to get some pics of her

Will look impressive in the sky.... like the "weathering" too....

Had a few hours spare today (Wednesday), so took the Fortress down to the Appledore site for its first flight. Wind was SW right down the secondary runway, so after charging her up, off she went. Bit like flying a bathtub until she was trimmed out. Being electric, you've got to keep the speed up or she tends to stall. A couple of low passes and then took her around for finals. Landing was very predictable and easy.

I'll do a few more flights to get the hang of the battery charging lark and then bring her down to Lydd.

Over and out.

Well done Phil good to keep maidens to a low profile to save any embarressment. When you flying next we need to get those magnums flying some kind of show time ....really enjoyed the brief duo last friday. I flew my skybolt today at Bethersden....nice and had a go on Brians park flyer a good laugh see ya soon.

Glad to hear the Fortress flew well mate and will have the camera ready for the Lydd display, she looks the business

Nice one, Adrian. Thanks for posting those!
