Video - McMeekin Falcon F3F - aerobatics

Phil.Taylor · Nov 07, 2009, 08:51 AM

Big, smooth, fast aerobatics with the McMeekin Falcon F3F ship - some flicks & spins thrown in for fun, and a race run at the end - flown/videod shortly after the Kulbutin flight. Wind had picked up to 35-40mph, flying with full ballast.

Falcon F3F aerobatics (5 min 5 sec)

Videod on Hard_Hat_Cam
comments welcomed

That is some very nice flying. I rarely see a large wing "soaring" plane perform such quick maneuvers. I guess it's in the quality of the pilot. I also like the view(s) from your launch site. Only if I had something nicer to look at than San Bernardino. *sigh*

OK - well I used to live in Plymouth and fly Exmoor and Dartmoor along with the coast - not sure whether I've flown your bit - think probably not!

Nothing like a big toy for efficiency - nice flying!

And you own Big efficient toy is how far from completion?

And a very good evening to you Mr.E - I trust your Falcon is still going well?
