Kinda breezy, so I decided to use this pig as a wind test bird.  It performed a lot better than expected.  Fairly slow on liftoff and a nice, easy flight to 250 feet.  Plenty of reef in the chute, so it was never in danger of feeding the trees.  Don't pay full price for them, but these MPC Round 2 birds aren't a bad bunch of small field fodder.
