A pic of my shed at the moment, project "too many builds".

Should stick to one at a time, mikes 330 in the foreground, coming together now all the bits are here. My 260 had been put on hold till I got back and turned the canopy to scrap....., start putting some bits in again now, wings and stabs done, rudder done, cowl, U/C, rudder tray set up and all surfaces tuned to the Royal, engine mount done, cowl baffle done.

Sorry to hear about your break in Snoop dog, be nice to catch them at it

As you know Hogboy, I can neither confirm nor deny any customer orders.

I reckon Hogboy is foxing, that pic is taken in his driveway. Hey Bones, now you know why you had to wait so long for your Yak, C-ARF held the shipment to get Hogboy's plane in it

Any way, your order arrived Tuesday at 10:25pm. We capacity tested your batteries yesterday and shipped this morning by express post. Can't get any quicker than that. . Your parcel should arrive on Friday so you will have new toys to play with this weekend.

The GelCel
excellent !!! thanks for that, i'm too impatient for my own good sometimes

Jeez, the 300 got here quick, did you get it overnight express.

When you off, I will probably fly Wed & Thur if you want the YAK done.

I will be in town Tuesday, will drop in if your off and take a look.

ps: do you want me to do your canopy for you, order another and off we go...LOL
