You could put a pair of split underpants on an Aeromaster and it would still look good! Great pictures of a Classic! Happy Flying Everyone!!!!! BIGRED

Looks like a lot of RDRC members are taking advantage of the good weather for the next 3 days.A few have mentioned they'll be out today and Thursday. I know Robert, Bill Fillmore,Jacqui and myself are all playing hookie on Friday! Better fly while we can!

It looks good, John. You and "Amarillo" (Dustin) will have to do some car crunching this year at one of the fly-ins!

He's probably "hand selecting" the lightest components for his personal plane. It's a dead give away when the wing color scheme doesn't match the fuse or stab! I can see it now... "hey larry, why is the color scheme different on your fuse and wings?" Lewis... "Well, you know these arf companies... must have put the wrong parts in the boxes..."
