LOL Rules, smules; we don't need no stinkin' rules ... :-)
LOL Nope; it's done; can't change it. I'll take me lumps. :-)
Hi MD. :-)
Do you mean the F4U? Your speed/time was 50 knots slower and 11 minutes longer than the F7F-1.

Down and safe at SCGZ
Good tail wind, 49 knots.
449knots GS, 45 min ete

Pat, you will need to register there (.net) as well. You can use the same user name and password if you wish.
LOL Paul; good one :-)
With the F7F, on take off, I always use one notch of flaps, and around 3-4 degrees nose-up trim. Just let her fly off which doesn't take much runway.
