First day out with the 30" free-flight rubber-powered Mister Mulligan from the Dumas kit, built & flown by Fred Stagg on 8.4.24 at Wawayanda, NY. The model went up the ladder slowly but gave the two beautiful flights shown here on a warm and calm afternoon. Filmed by Tom Hallman with a Canon PowerShot SX20 & and iPhone 14Pro. Music: "Young Summer" by Josh Leake via ArtList.io.
