Default 2 Dalton's in a Box

Time for delivery. These two birds belong to Mike Milos, one is a 260 and the other is a standard 300. The 300 I built on another thread, the 260 was a part build by Tony Russo for Manny Parial that Manny sold to me and I inturn sold it to Mike. Are you confused now? Anyway, Mike killed his Aerotech 300 and bought the Dalton 260 from me. So it really took some time to ship the 300 to Mike cause I was trying to save him some money on the shipping by sending both planes at the same time, so he had to wait tell I could get the 260 to the point that I didn't need the fuse anymore. Mike already has the wings and stabs for the 300. This gets two more planes out of the shop. Don Hamilton will be happy. I now I am. Here's some pics. Rob

Looks good. Isn't that the 300 cowl on the 260 and vice versa?

Mike will take good care of it Manny. I was planning on keeping it for myself but Mike needed another plane and it was almost done so it worked out in his advantage. I'll build another one and when your ready for one just give me a call. Rob

It's the other way around for the Dalton's I've seen. Flat spot on this 260 from Dalton's website....
