Thank you Jim. I could not find that paint code for you, but will dig it up for you in the next couple of days at work. I used it on a DP Edge some time ago and it matched pretty well.
I agree, some nice stuff showing up lately. Seems everyone is getting tired of having a plane that looks like everyone else' . Nice to see some different designs Craig

OUCH!!!! I did prove that I could land about 250 yards away, behind some trees, in a hay field with a 48 pound airplane with very minimal damage though!!! What we did learn though, is that after all this happens, you shouldnt let Craig and JimC strap the airplane to the quad!!!!!

Thats a good question... perhaps if we apply the "flying buddy" discount, ill atleast have both arms... I could have sworn I remember Craig saying, "I love covering..." Heck, it would almost be like I was doing him a favor giving him something to do that he enjoys!!!

After a 3 month break, I realized that flying season is coming fast and finally got back on it. I want to thank Tony Russo for helping me out with the paint match on the Ultracote Pearl Red and my buddy Eric at Premier Motorsports for shooting the five colors on the cowl and hatch today. Time to cover the wings, stabs and go flying. Will keep you updated

Thanks Elie....the Edge makes this look like a miniature toy airplane. I am still really looking forward to getting this in the air as the 260 is my favorite airframe and I am guessing it will fly awesome. Looks like spring is almost here.....55 degrees by Sunday. See you at the field

Craig
