Brad, don't be fibbing. We all know, as the controls unloaded, and you were just about to float over the top, just one thing ran through your mind ...


... this would be so much sweeter if the little wheel were in back.

I think everyone was well aware that they could go upside down. It's just that most pictures on VAF happen to be them doing so on the ground

Sorry, was not meant in any kind of distasteful manner.

As a -A builder/pilot, I've been asked *so* many times if I'm concerned about it flipping over primarily because people see only those pictures posted here.

Also, if you guys are paying attention you will notice that all the the flipped A models are heavily primed.
