    Wow, that's 12 minutes I won't get back - just kidding! Nice Stryker - love the pop-off nose design (why cant everyone do that?). We've had a few Strykers in our group at work but not much success (they were cheaper HobbyKing kits). Let me know how this flies. Good luck :D

    I met a guy named Chris in Grants Pass who has a modified Stryker that is really fast.  He was at that school off Redwood Ave.

    I've seen him flying that plane - it is fast. Gotta love the variety of planes to see and watch down there.

    Yes there is a variety.  We watched a guy fly a yellow plane that to me looked like a Cessna.  He just flew circled with touch-and-go landings.  The plane flew nice and slow and looked like a lot of fun.

    That sounds like Dennis. Was he sitting in a chair looking like he hadn't a care in the world?

    I believe that the guy flying that yellow plane was sitting in a chair.  Maybe a tall thin guy?

    Yep, that's him. Flies a few different planes. All slow-flyers that I've seen, and loves doing those touch-and-go's. Has a couple slo-sticks, one mini, and one large that he seems to fly most (at least when I've been there).

    I think the last time I was there one plane he flew was a big slo with transparent red wings.

    Hey, have you got your Striker together yet? Bring it out to the school tomorrow if you're gonna make it out.
