I'm sorry for the distraction, but since you brought it up, you have to tell
us about your model airplane! :-)
There is a small lake near my house I can walk to, so I have been having a
blast on calm evenings with my Seawind park flyer:

I also got my Shrike 40 flying recently ... that is a real kick ... bank and
yank style flying, but it slows way up for pretty tame landings. (It's
about the world's simplest ARF so it only took me 5 months to assemble):

I just ordered a Polaris park flyer kit ... usually takes me at least a year
to put together an ARF and this is a kit, so no promises when this will be
ready to fly, but it should be nice at the little lake near my house...

There are two HD (95Mb) movies you can download from the rcgroups thread
that are probably worth the bandwidth if you enjoy cool airplanes.
Ok, back to your regularly scheduled program ... :-)
Curt.
