It’s big and loud. This is it’s first go. I think Mark did very, very well. He soon got the hang of it and started chucking it around and bunging on the smoke thingie …. marvellous! Here’s flight number two (thanks for the movie Darren), the plane is better trimmed and Martk ready to push […]

It doesn’t seem to be flying straight. Now, do I bleep the soundtrack? Mute it? Well that’s easier but dull so there’s some music. Some might like it, some might not, sorry if you don’t, please don’t complain to me, I like it so I won’t understand.

So, it was a first for us today, […]
