There's been a little activity in the Vess shop over the past week. First, Joe Rafalowski was in town and was working on a Big A$$ Foamy from DW Foamies here last week. He also brought some blocks of EPP foam (more like what the T-28's are made out of) and we hotwired a couple of 2EZ's to test this material. This is the first time we've tried EPP on a 2EZ. I now have one mostly built and it looks very promising! It's certainly going to add even more durability.
![]() Then, Larry was over yesterday working on an OMP Fusion for Wes Devaney. It's looking great and I'm sure Larry will be able to deliver it this week. He needs to clear his shop to build a certain FW-190.....and maybe some Club40 racers....and some foamies....and a 3D plane for Jacqui....and another jet.....and some indoor planes.....and....and....and..... ![]() It's looking like the weather is going to be pretty decent Tuesday and word has it that a few of us may head out to the field if our other obligations are met. If you aren't working or shopping, join us!

Have you ever dreamed of what it would be like to ride in a fighter jet? I always thought it would be cool and actually got close to getting an opportunity to ride in an F-18 once when I was working with the Navy on a project. That never materialized and it's probably a good thing because as these videos show, it may have been quite humbling. There's actually several videos at this link showing the experience of a reporter who got to fly with the Blue Angels! Have a look.
Thanks to Jamie Hicks for the link.....

That 2EZ looks nice!
I've been workin on a bunch of foamies(Larry targets) lately.... So far, I have a DW38" and 28" Yak ready to go, and I'm in the process of building a pair of Fancy Foam Yak55's..... I hope to have 8 foamies ready to go by 2010.... Is an Urge cutting party still in the works? Thanks! Chris

You have quite an air force there, Fiddy. And, yep, we'll do that Urge thing before too long....
