I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ .

I've hit the deck
Yes, minimal damage, right aileron stopped, beacause I didn't plug it in properly, caught a tree then a reasonablely heavy landing, bent the undercart, lucky escape, tank also leaking & unsecure, what a plonker I am
Re: I've hit the deck
I also hit the deck but not sure why I stalled coming in over the hedge.Glad Rich a/c was virtually ok.

Re: I've hit the deck
YOU GOT AWAY WITH IT!
Theme of the week that, was a good escape if you ask me, Rich called "this is in" a good 45-60 sec before it landed. He had a right old wrestle with her but did a great job, it just cliped the tree and killed the airspeed but I reckon damage would have been no worse if he haddent have cliped it because either way it way in the ruff.
My Rav is ready for a remained well will be in about 5 mins when i sort the throtle link

Re: I've hit the deck
It's been a week of near misses this week, Jem landed on a pitching deck the other night and caught the arrester system with his main gear instead of his tail hook Lets be careful out there
