Folks,

Do you have anything that you can not do nor say at where you fly? In the local hobby club, I have been told that we can only take photo of our own birds right before we are packing up to go home and also, we can not say " one last flight and I am doen" sort of this. I did it three times, those cost me two serious crashes and one Seceadu flew away. Today, another guy in the field flew for two good hours without a problem. Then he told me that he would have the last flight for the day; and he crashed... Believe it or not.

The heli gods enjoy messing with us. Superstition dictates that the more you want to keep it the faster it will go down. Just act like you don't care and they will leave you alone. Bring out a camera and all bets are off. This is why we seem to always be admiring other peoples helis and not our own.

I can't say what I will possibly crash into. If I do, I will. For example; today I was flying, after my third pack and a close encounter with a building, a friend commented on my skills (or lack thereof). Well I said; just watch, next pack I'll hit the building. And I did. I hit the roof pulling out of an inverted dive into a banked turn. Parts went everywhere. I guess I shouldn't have been flying so close to it.

The one that gets more than anything is "One last flight" or "One Flight"

One last flight

A crash always makes it "the last flight"..

What has always gotten me is "Hey, check this out." Those 4 little words have cost me a good bit of money.
