Craig,

The plane looks great. If you had mentioned those colors to me I would never have imagined that the plane would look as awesome as it does. Great job.

Tony

I love your scheme. Love the planes that stand out in a crowd. Yours definitely will.

Thank you. I more or less copied the scheme from Buddy and Sylvester Hale. I saw their 35% Extra at the Nall a couple of years ago and wanted to do something similar ever since I saw it.

Thanks King....I had heard you guys were converting Tony! He called Wednesday night and all he wanted to talk about was jets, jets, jets (lol)

Jay, next thing you know he will be renting a golf cart to ride around Joe Nall in

Anyway, got the motorbox sealed up and motor installed this afternoon. Really starting to look like a plane now
