Was out flying today in fact. We put together a plane and have him testing it for us! Good thing we tested it! This prototype had a bad stab and failed in flight! So, not only is he active but he's still testing for us! Pretty cool I think. Thanks for the kind words! Anyway, glad to hear from you! Mike He’s actually really active. Was out flying today in fact.

That is for certain! He's flying quite a bit. We're putting together the prototype of the new BH Models Katana for him right now (91 FS size). He has to have a helper when working with the glow engines, but he's a Magnum guy and still loves flying glow. -Mike Hi Garry!
