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?

My bad.

Doh makes me miss mine I sold off Oh well when I am done with some of training I can have another

Looking good!

Nice job Rob!!

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

OK OK, I took alook again and noticed the same thing. Anyways thanks for the heads up. Does it look alright this time.LOL Rob

Two Daltons in the box ready to go. Nice fit if i do say so myself. There's six inches of peanuts between both planes. I ranout of peanuts so I'll have to finish packing it up tomorrow. Rob

Looks good Rob. Ive been there myself, sniffing too much glue and working many late nights in a row.

Nothing like the smell of wood glue in the early hours.

The wife said it was nice that someone said something before I had them all packed up. I'll admit it. I screwed up. But it's nice that you already had the blocks glued in on these so the swap was easy. I'll get that list to you tomorrow. Rob

The 300 looks pretty awesome with the 260 cowling
