Whats up peeps!. Check my new nose pant.....just installed today. I've ordered the G Force extention selector option (allows me to keep the wheels up during flight and only let them down when I'm ready to land) and will be installing it in the near future. I've become an expert (in my own mind only) on implementing the metro lauch sytem and cant get enough of it. Off the ground in seconds....for real guys, no bull. I've never experienced anything like it. This thing litterally lifts off the ground instantly, blows my mind. Thought some of you might be interested. Enjoy the pics and let me know what you think.
Tango Out!! |

Dang Tim, good thing you have a 912 on that thing, Have you weighed the bling?
Did you have all the accessories on your bicycle when you were a kid? Looks nice, video would be cool.

Barry,
Prob wont be making ROC, I have a house closing on the 10th and need every minute to make sure it is ready....dont like to miss a closing date.....thats payday!!! John, for the metro takeoff I'm at 300....have seen 325 more time than i can count, but cant seem to wait much any longer past 300...its a thrill and really really works. Dont see many no wind takeoffs here and have never checked the actual distance i roll before lift off....surfice to say 2 to 5 seconds.....depends on how i'm feeling!!!.....hehehehehe Scott, no, havent weighed the bling on this addition but i got a whole lot of room left on that 912, cant believe i ever flew without one....so much power.....i just get tired of climbing...it wont stop....simply amazing.... And yes on the bicycle thing......remember the bannana seats....do they even make those anymore? Tango |
