All,
Didn't mean to delete Kang's message from web, so recopied below. Hope you find a safer Cat I site, Kang. Maybe that Georgia Cat I is beckoning.

<<Mark,
 
I missed your record by 58 seconds. It's a dangerous place to fly F1D -- way too many things in the ceiling to catch the model. I made one flight, 26:52, but did not get the low pitch setting correct and landed with 290 turns. I made a second attempt with a shorter motor (8.6") and taking off 2 degrees from low pitch. Unfortunately, the model got caught on a light, rolled upside down, and snapped in a couple of places. I will find a safer site with a smooth ceiling next time.>>
