After deciding that it has been much too long since any mulitplay sessions had been undertaken Ian and I setup a multiplay with Ant's new Trojan. We had a great time but did also manage to find a few peculiarities. It pays to turn off AccuFeel 2.0 (or maybe do some fine tuning) otherwise stalls can occur at high speed and are something beyond scary!

Preparing for takeoff from NZNS



On course towards Nelson City and the Boulder Bank



Now where did Ian go to? He was just in front of me.....



Ok, found him. Ditched in the bay due to that vicious AccuFeel induced spin


Next flight it was my turn to get into trouble, an emergency landing in a field south of Richmond and then unable to restart the engine. Ian cam searching for me



Ian landed alongside and provided an emergency rescue pickup. I hopped into the back of his and setup a dual cockpit sharing sesion and away we went again.


Taking it in turns in piloting in the shared cockpit we both tried to out do each other in stall turns, tail slides, low barrel rolls etc


Oops, this one might be a bit close - at this point my flight ended but Ian kept going - a bit odd seeing as how we were sharing the cockpit but there you go .. . . I'm not going to mention who the pilot was at this stage but he did manage to finish me off while continuing his own flight . . .


All in all a good time and great flight. We will certainly be repeating this again soon.

A T-28 .. all that boom chug-a-lugga - boom chug-a-lugga - boom chug-a-lugga as ya chug on past .. course the sound package the comes with Ants T-28 , one guy who put it back in 88 is a spark plug out
