Im afraid I failed - shamefully....... Sad


My first plan was to take the Mirage up, then down!
...

...

The run didn't go to well when I pulled up too fast!
...

My next plan was not a great Idea but even so getting off the ground would have been a start!
...


Off we go!
...

Sending it into a Vibration.
...

...

I hang my head in shame!

Ahhh, alright now, gotta put some kinda rules on this.
First, no crashin, cant tell the tale if ya didnt survive. Roll Eyes

Also, cant survive if ya over-stress...........same difference.

Hmmm, and one other thing.........at only 244ft that indicated airspeed is actually slower than it looks as yer doin much less than mach 2 even, cuz at FL600 I can get her up to mach4, which coverted is about 3,000mph!! Hmmhpf! Undecided

Savy? Grin
