If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

That's one nice Meteor!
On second thoughts, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place!

I'll pretend I have not seen it otherwise I would have to run in circles out of envy.

Re: Toby's Meteoric Mk4
And it's a bloody tail sitter
I had a sneaking feeling it was going to be. Should've put more weight aft of the cockpit
Need to use a lot more gloss as the finish is nowhere near as good as I'd hoped due to a slight incident with dust, an open window and freshly applied varnish. Never happened before.

I stuck a pin into the fuselage just behind the rear wing hence no shots from that angleOld_Tonto wrote:Looks blooming marvelous. Great build.
