Recently I have started a new hobby – RC Car Drifting. I have bought and built 2 cars and am into my third. Find more information on the build progress on its dedicated page. It is a truly fun little hobby and it does not require much space, a thing that always has put me off bigger RC cars.

It is such a beautiful place to fly and even more so after the World Update for the USA. We started in Redding and followed the road up north. A quick stop right next to Mt Shasta at Dunsmuir Airport and then around the mountain down to Klamath Falls. If you fancy hot springs you could continue to Crater Lake, but that is for the next time.

Another one of my old models finished. This time my runner-up title car from 2007/2008, the BMW M3 GTR from the VR M3 Cup. The original model is an AutoArt 1:18 “Plain Body”.
I was not quite satisfied with the final look and went over the model again. I painted all the window frames and the rubber seals for the doors and trunk lid.
It has been a long wait, but finally I finished another model. As you know I am a virtual racing driver and I plan to have all the more successful cars as a model.
This one is my Ferrari 275 GTB from the Classic Endurance from 2007. I raced this one to a 3rd place finish in the GTC65 class which gave my team “Alienhunters” the 2nd place overall.
The kit is a mixture from Revell and Italeri with many parts removed for racing. The exhausts were 3D printed and most decals are designed by myself.
After the shortend flight yesterday I was eager to get going again. Compared to the last one, this was beautiful and busy thanks to a lot of traffic around Dublin. Cloudy still, but much favorable winds. One last flight to go!

It was finally time to do a flight on the flying boat tour again. Equipped with the Grumman Goose by BigRadials (a phenomenal well made plane) I started out from the Faroer Islands on my way to Shannon in Ireland. But thats not were I landed. 😉

After a lot of development and testing it was finally time to just fly again. Using the wonderful work from Troglodytus and littlerk I started my trip in LOGG Punitz-Güssing and flew to LOWZ Zell am See through the Alps.
Along the way I made touch and go’s in LOGK Kapfenberg and LOGO Niederoeblarn. The sun was low in the sky as were the clouds. Still the alps were wonderful to fly. The highlights for me were the skiing slopes at Schladming and the mountain range of the Dachstein.
Big Radials has just released their brand new plane for Microsoft Flight Simulator, the P40-B Tomahawk. As crash test dummy #2 I am very happy that Big Radials has gotten to this point. It was not easy, but now it is finally here.
The P40-B is a truly iconic plane from nearly forgotten era! Big Radials has aimed for a fun to fly aircraft backed up with real life numbers and systems. So, get yours now (and a little extra, if you buy via the Big Radials website) and #FlyTheDamnPlane!
