Hey Sleepy,
You're not looking so good, bro, maybe you better call it a day and get home and recover. |

That's good to know - I knew that Mike knew better than to use iron on film in there!

Re: Hangar 9 35% 260 from the Box to the air!!
Well I'm off on a business trip in 10 minutes.
Be home LATE tonight/tomorrow morning. JUST in time to get the boxes of gear I need to really get this build moving! So tomorrow night expect to see some major progress on this plane. Believe me.. I wish I could just work on this TONIGHT!! Oh well, such is the life of being employed! (or as some say.. a Biatch to the MAN!)

Re: Hangar 9 35% 260 from the Box to the air!!
I cant wait to se you finish this one Sleepy. Should be a good thread. BTW, did you give up or sell the Dalton???? I am kinda shocked to see you doing this. Non the less, should be a great build. Looks like it's a real nice ARF.

Re: Hangar 9 35% 260 from the Box to the air!!
Th Dalton will be finished in amazing Detail. The Ohio Flying season caught me right as the tedious , and "don't rush this" parts of the build hit. So instead of rushing through the end of the build and having a "ok" plane I put it aside and flew. So in a few months when the weather starts to chill I will resume the build and make the Dalton the best plane it can be. It was never meant to b a rush job, I said from the start that I wanted to learn as much as possible and do it right, and so far that is what I have done. So It will finish, and it will be VERY NICE!
BUT... a plane that can be ready to go in just a few days... that fits into the short Ohio flying season... meaning.... hopefully all my boxes show up today, and tonight I BUILD!!

OK guys I just got home and a ton of stuff was waiting at the door for me.
