"Space Shuttle Orbiter Enterprise soars above the North Base area of Edwards Air Force Base during its five-minute, 34-second unpowered flight, the third of a series of manned Shuttle Approach and Landing Tests (ALT-14). Moments earlier Enterprise had separated from its 747 carrier aircraft, atop which it sat upon takeoff from the Dryden Flight Research Center (DFRC), with its crew of astronauts Fred W. Haise Jr., commander, and C. Gordon Fullerton, pilot. Three T-38 chase planes follow. This photograph was taken from a fourth T-38 chase plane."

introduced the charming four-year-old next door to Pip and taught her how to make him sit and lie down if he tries to jump on her (he only wants to lick her face aha but she is very small I don’t want him to knock her over!!). she was extremely wary at first and then extremely Pip’s best friend ever within 10 minutes. I’m hoping she becomes very comfortable with him so that one day I can introduce her to Ruthie 😬 Ruthie is a hard sell with kids because she barks so ferociously for the first 5-10 minutes. then she’s an absolute angel baby who wishes nothing more than to be held and loved by you!!! but it’s understandably hard for little kids to get past the barking especially if they don’t have dogs themselves

I did fix up my plane again! Apparently my "good to great" landing a couple weeks back messed up my altimeter and clogged a pitot tube.
Now the stall warning shouldn't be blaring anymore.

Introduction to RC Planes: A Fascinating Hobby
Welcome to the world of radio-controlled model airplanes. It is undoubtedly one of the most thrilling and rewarding hobbies out there, combining a variety of diverse interests. Where else can you explore aerodynamics, woodworking, composite materials, electronics, mechanics, small motors, drafting, artistry, the great outdoors, and club activities all at once than with a Radio Control Airplane.
One must understand that most radio-controlled model aircraft are not toys. They function on the same principles as a full-scale aircraft, with the only variation being size and weight.
These models can reach speeds of 20 to 200 KPH, while the average trainer flies at 50 to 80 KPH. They cannot be flown in ordinary backyards; they need ample space! Moreover, just like their full-size counterparts, controlling them properly requires skill and practice.
It is not as simple as pressing a button for takeoff or landing - it takes effort and expertise to operate them smoothly.
After becoming familiar with the hobby, many individuals come to understand its complexity beyond initial beliefs—it is not simply a game for young boys.
And the process of acquiring new skills adds to the enjoyment and fulfillment of the hobby. It is far from dull and guarantees long-lasting pleasure, particularly if you begin on a positive note.
Getting Started: Basics for Beginner Hobbyists
The plane
Discover the various types of RC planes, including:
- Trainer Planes: Perfect for beginners, they offer stability and effortless control, providing a seamless introduction to flying.
- Sport Planes: Designed for leisurely flights, these models strike a balance between agility and stability, making them a popular choice among enthusiasts.
- Scale Planes: Immerse yourself in history and craftsmanship with scale replicas of real aircraft. These planes are a delight for collectors and aviation history enthusiasts.
- Warbirds: Relive iconic battles of the past with warbird RC planes. These models pay tribute to military aircraft and provide a unique flying experience.
- Aerobatic Planes: For daring adventurers, aerobatic planes are designed for jaw-dropping stunts and manoeuvres, pushing the limits of flight.
Electric vs. Fuel-Powered: Making Your Propulsion Choice
The heart of your RC plane lies in its propulsion system. Electric and fuel-powered engines each have their advantages, catering to different preferences and skill levels.
Electric planes offer quiet operation, and simple maintenance, and are well-suited for beginners. On the other hand, Fuel-powered planes provide more power and longer flight times but require more maintenance and expertise to operate effectively.
The radio
In addition to an aircraft, a radio is necessary for controlling it. Most aircraft radios come with four or more channels and all the required components, including rechargeable battery packs.
When purchasing your first radio, consider looking for "buddy box" capability. This allows two transmitters to be connected via cable, with one held by the instructor and the other by the student.
The student can control the model as long as the instructor holds a spring-loaded trainer switch on their transmitter. If the student encounters trouble, the instructor can release the switch and regain full control of the model. This feature can greatly reduce learning time and provide added assurance for novice pilots against accidents.
Learning to Fly: Essential Skills and Techniques
Important points to remember when flying your rc airplane:
Avoid flying too far from your position, as doing so may result in losing sight of your aircraft. This can cause disorientation and make it difficult to determine its orientation or direction. Such a scenario increases the risk of losing control and ultimately crashing.
In the same way, avoid flying your rc airplane directly above you. This can also cause confusion as you try to look upward and follow the plane with your head. It becomes difficult to gauge the plane's position in relation to the ground. Instead, keep the plane within your sight in front of you or on the sides - never overhead or behind you.
Avoid flying directly in front of the sun, whether you are wearing sunglasses or if there is cloud cover. Doing so could result in immediate and temporary sight impairment, which could have serious consequences.
Keep in mind, as you fly your rc airplane towards yourself, the turns will be opposite to what you are used to. In other words, left will now be right and right will now be left. It may take some time to adjust to this "reverse control" or "reverse coordination," but with practice, you'll become more comfortable with it.
Pro tip: If you get disoriented when the aircraft is approaching and making a turn, simply move the stick toward the side of the lower wing. For instance, if the plane is turning to its right while flying towards you, adjust the stick towards the lower right side to correct the turn.
Always keep flying your rc plane in open space, well away from people, animals and property.
Also, fly well clear of trees - they seem to have a very magnetic effect and attract model planes!
Ensure that you maintain a safe altitude while flying - being too close to the ground limits your ability to correct any potential problems. It is recommended to fly at a minimum of "2 mistakes high" for optimal safety.
Ensure your turns remain gentle and avoid over-correcting. The main cause of crashes for beginner rc airplane pilots is excessive correction, meaning too much use of the transmitter sticks. Maintain a consistent pace and smooth movements at all times!
Overall use common sense. Don’t do anything beyond your current abilities.
Intermediate Level Flying
What constitutes an intermediate level?
It can vary depending on location and club affiliations.
A beginner would generally still be under the guidance of an instructor, while an intermediate pilot would be able to perform basic aerobatics with their remote control plane.
At this level, you should feel comfortable flying most sport-type aircraft. For example, I find Hangar 9 warbirds to have a sport-like performance and are relatively easy to handle if you have confidence in your takeoff and landing abilities.
Being advanced means being proficient in more complex manoeuvres and comfortable operating aircraft with minimal separation between the centre of pressure and centre of gravity, as well as those with high wing loading.
At The End...
Embark on an exhilarating journey with RC Planes, the ultimate hobby for thrill-seekers and aviation enthusiasts alike. At Campbelltown Hobbies, we're passionate about providing you with the highest quality RC planes and accessories to fuel your fascination with flight.
Whether you're a seasoned pilot or just starting out, our extensive range of products and expert guidance will elevate your experience to new heights. Get ready to take to the skies and let your imagination soar with RC Planes from Campbelltown Hobbies. Let's make your flying dreams a reality!

As sweet as blood-red jam | Mob!Lando
Summary: Lando could be many things given the nature of his job. Mean, commandeering, a control freak. But when he came home to you and the kids, he was the sweetest man you’d ever met. Your marriage to him was arranged of course, because that’s how things worked in the world you were both from. But love eventually grew between the two of you, and it did not stop growing. 
Themes: dad!Lando, fluff, smut, arranged marriage, domestic!mob!Lando, mild mommy/daddy kink (nicknames only), praise kink, housewife!reader, breeding kink

“They’re sleeping.” 
He announced cheerfully, shutting the door behind him as he walked into your library where you had been reading in silence for the past half an hour. 
You were a stay-at-home mom so the twins, your son and daughter, were under your care all day. And so Lando insisted that you get the evening off the moment he got home. He read to them and tucked them in for the night each night. It was part of his routine and he loved it. 
You placed your wine glass down and picked up the drink you made for him, handing it to him as he came over to sit down next to you on the large sofa. 
His eyes lit up at the sight of the well-deserved drink. “Oh you’re perfect, baby.” He kissed your forehead before getting comfortable next to you, sighing as he leaned his head back, closing his eyes for a brief moment. 
“They’ve been running around all day, they went to see the horses,” You said, thinking about how energetic your kids had been during the day, “I thought they would pass out after dinner but they wanted to wait for daddy.” 
Your husband smiled, looking a little tired as he took a sip of his drink. You caressed his cheek with a gentle hand as he turned to give you a soft look with those gorgeous eyes of his. 
He looked more relaxed and comfortable like this, wearing nothing but dark sweatpants. As opposed to the authoritative figure he is during the day in his expensive, dark suits. Him in casual clothing like this made you realise that he was in fact just a young man, barely 25, who shouldered a lot of weight alone. 
Responsibilities, expectations, risks, reputation, legacy, and now his own family. You’d come a long way, the two of you. Only a couple years ago you were just strangers being introduced at a gala. And now you were young parents. 
You still remember the night you met him for the first time. How gently he held your hand and danced with you. How your engagement was announced only a few months after and the wedding happened quicker than you thought. 
You always thought that you would forever be strangers living under the same roof. Especially given his reputation of being a workaholic which made him such an influential figure in his line of work. 
But Lando proved you wrong. He actually took the time to get to know you early on in your marriage, he cared, he listened. He was good to you. Then a year later, you had the twins and Lando had been perfect. Perfect partner, perfect dad. 
“What are you thinking about, mama?” He asked softly, his hand leisurely caressing your exposed thigh. That golden chain on his neck shining in the dimmed lights of the library. No shirt so you shamelessly ogled his defined abs and muscles. He let you, with a smirk on his handsome face. 
You put the book aside and leaned a little closer to him, cupping his rough chin in your hand. He’d been growing facial hair lately and you liked it. “You work too hard,” You said softly. 
He smiled, leaning into the warmth of your hand as he said, “Just wanna give you and the kids everything you want and need. You deserve it.” 
He had given you everything. Houses, cars, chauffeurs, chefs, private planes, private trainers, cards with no spending limits, vacations. You and the kids were well taken care of. 
You sighed, sliding over and ending up perfectly on his lap. Lando finished his drink, placed the glass aside and grabbed you by the waist to pull you closer. “But we have everything we could ever want or need.” You suggested, “Take a day off. Or two. I’m taking the kids shopping tomorrow, come spend the day with us.” 
Lando gave you a faint smile, “Can’t right now, baby. Some important shipments are about to come in. I can’t afford a day off until it gets here.” 
You rolled your eyes, making him chuckle and pull you closer. “But I barely see you.” You murmured. “The last time we had a date night was like, weeks ago.” 
Your face got really hot just thinking about it. Not just the date, but what happened after in the car on the way home… 
Lando smirked, surely also thinking about the same thing, grabbing you by the hips and gently moving you on his lap, rubbing you against his growing erection. You hissed in pleasure as he did. The soft, silky night dress you were wearing bunched up around your upper thighs, allowing you to feel everything. The shape of him, the warmth. 
“If you wanted a lovesick romeo who writes you love notes every morning then you shouldn’t have agreed to marry a man like me.” He taunted, teasing you and pinching your thigh. 
You reached out and grabbed his gold chain, tugging on it playfully, knowing how much he liked it when you did. “Unfortunately I like my men a little more corrupted,” You whispered, “Bonus points if they work all the time and don’t have time for me.” You sassed. 
Lando chuckled, leaning in to kiss along your jaw. “Aww, what is it?” He cooed, “You miss daddy? Hmm? Does mommy need some extra love from daddy tonight?” 
You nodded. 
“Come here, baby,” He pressed his mouth to yours as his hands caressed your inner thighs. He kissed you like he was starving, while your hands reached down in between your bodies and eagerly lowered his sweatpants to free his cock. 
You whimpered into the kiss, against his lips as you wrapped your hand around him, stroking his hard cock, making him groan into the kiss before he pulled away and said, “Daddy missed you too.” He murmured, looking down to watch how your hand touched him just how he liked it. “Fuck,” He sighed, “That feels good, baby…” 
His praise gave you enough confidence to stroke him harder, making him groan and moan. You loved the sounds he made. And you wanted to keep hearing those moans so you carefully lifted your lower body off his, pulled your underwear to the side and slowly lowered yourself down on his cock, earning louder moans out of his sinful mouth as you sank down on him. 
You were wet enough for his cock to slide in, but your body still resisted just a little bit, enough for him to have to thrust up the tiniest bit to fully fill you up. You cried out as he did. 
His soft lips parted just a little, and you couldn’t resist leaning in and sliding your tongue into his mouth. You whimpered against his lips, stroking the top of his mouth as you lifted up and sank back down on his cock, making him growl into the messy kiss. 
“That’s it, baby… fuck yourself on daddy’s cock…” Lando’s hands rubbed up and down your thighs again as he gently thrust his hips up each time, setting a pace that had you both moaning and wanting more of each other. 
Your fingers slid into his hair, scratching his scalp and down his neck as the tip of his cock reached sensitive places inside you. 
Lando chuckled when he felt you clench around him. “We’re not using protection again, mama…” He spoke against your open mouth, breathless as you were, “You’re gonna give me another kid, huh?” He sounded cocky as he said it, like it filled him with pride. “Gonna let me fill you up again till you walk around all nice and swollen with my baby in you, hmm?” 
You whined, feeling him stretch you out each time you moved up and down his cock. “Lando… please,” You gasped as his hand slipped between the two of you and found your clit, he rubbed it lazily. 
“Answer me,” He demanded, “You’re gonna carry another one for me?” His voice sent chills down your back. 
“Yes,” You whimpered, moving faster, impaling yourself down on his cock and whimpering shamelessly as you felt him filling you up completely each time, feeling him reach deeper into you with each thrust. Your lips brushed against his each time you moved up and down his cock, feeling him stretch you out as you stared into his ridiculously pretty eyes. You couldn’t help but speak the thoughts of your lust-drunk mind, “I want you to fill me up again,” You mumbled, feeling yourself getting high up there gradually. 
Lando laughed, also lust-drunk, “I can’t wait…” He said, “Can’t wait to come home and find you dripping wet for me.” His voice gave away that he was thinking back to how needy you were for him all throughout your previous pregnancy. 
You whimpered, thinking about it as well. Some evenings he’d come home and you dragged him to the bedroom immediately. Some days you even called him and asked him if he could come home for an hour or two. Lando happily agreed each time of course. 
“Remember how sensitive you’d get? How needy?” He teased, holding you close. “How you almost cried each time I made you come?” He smirked, male pride all over his face. “Some of the best months of my life those were.” 
You whined, “Please…” You stared into his pretty eyes. 
“Come for me.” He growled in that cold, menacing, erotic voice. “Come for daddy…” 
And you did. Whimpering, squirming and whining. You didn’t slow down as you felt your orgasm wash over you, and Lando kept thrusting his hips up into you as your eyes rolled back and you moaned out loud as you came hard, feeling your walls squeezing and clenching around him.
Lando came right after you, moaning and spilling inside of you, filling you up as you trembled and squirmed on his lap. You leaned forward, pushing your face into his neck to catch your breath while he held you against him, kissing the side of your face softly. 
“You okay, baby?” He asked after a few minutes of you two just cuddling there on the sofa. 
You nodded, “Mhmm, don’t wanna get up.” You murmured, sighing in bliss as you snuggled into his warm chest. 
He chuckled, “Okay.” He kissed the stop of your head. “I love you,” He whispered.
