Right on Billy. Cool to see you and Kenny got together on this but my point was that they guy who paid for an original scheme from Kenny really got short changed with out even a thought.

I should clarify that I'm not implying that this was intentional, but probably just an over site.

Bill, I dont think you should have to explain yourself!! Keep doing what you are doing. Next thing someone will say is you copied your 52% biplane off of Blaine Austins Cardens instead of Mark. Dennis is going to hammer you when he finds out. lol

Bill,

Dito the above with regard to a simi symmetrial airfoil. There is a very famous cub that was flown by the great Bevo Howard circa 1948 and won the national airobatic championships with clipped BC-12 Tcraft wings and 180HP lycoming. The same airplane was also flown by the late Charlie Hillard and it is now owned and flown by local aerobatic pilot John Maquire who flys it with hand controls due to a near fatial accident in his Pitts a few years ago that left him paralyzed from the wast down.

Nice planes you design there Bill. It sure would be nice to see you come down our way one event this summer, the Tulsa Heatwave would be a good one, even though it is 1100 miles for ya thats nothing for a stepper like yourself "lol" would like to meet you sometime though, maybe at Nall if you go.

Ok, back to the Cub!

Maybe I will offer a semi-symetrical airfoil as a "version II" after this fist container. LOL

I agree that a semi-symetrical airfoil would be a little more fun but can you imagine what all the "scale" guys would say if I did that? Man, that would be a battle! lol

Guys, tomorrow I will be leaving with the Cub for the AMA show! You can finally see the video!

I had the DVD camcorder CD finalized but I still could not download it to my computer! That stinks. I gave the 2 disks to my photographer Rick Adams and he could not get it on his computer either with the camera installed to it. I will have to re-shoot the video for the website and FG with a "real" camera! That will happen weekend after next!

Ok, any questions out there for the Cub? anyone else want to order one before the show? This will be the last weekend to get the $100.00 discount!

Special pricing: The 50% Edge 540 will be on SALE CHEAP at the AMA show, bring your cash!

We are weird close friends, with a sick sense of humor. His wife set me up a few years ago with a Super Phsyco whacked out B$i$%ch from Hell. Finally got rid of her. I should have listened to him at that time. don't fall in love with it.
Well, it took be 2 years to learn, He was right all along.
I listen to him now..
Much happier.

Cheers,
Forrest

Bill, I'll have to look and see what the name of the program was that I downloaded for free. I have a Canon DVD camcorder and ran into the same problem that you are describing. I downloaded this program and then told it to rip the finalized DVD and it ripped it as an AVI i think.

I'll try and check tonight and post here...
