Default Bulldog for AFPD

In memory of the late pilot Jim Leroy, I think someone needs to make a model of his plane the bulldog for AFPD.

Jim was an inspiration to everyone and a modellers friend. And an Awesome Pilot.

The modified Pitts he flew (Bulldog) should be modelled in his memory.

Lets hear your thought now you've heard mine.

Dave has plans for a 90" ws of this model. I think it's 42% scale and it's a beautiful plane. Someday I'm going to get around to building one of them and also a Weeks Solution, both planes were designed by Miles Reed and Dave bought the rights and all his tooling for the kits.

Dave's email is davepeg@wilkshire.net There is no website as I know of, he is always fast to respond to email also has printed material on the planes he can send you. Dave is a great guy to talk with.

So does any one have any objections to making a bulldog pitts for afpd./

next do we know any one who has the capabilities to make one. from what i ve read its relatively easy to make the 3D model and hard to set it up for AFPD.

if u have any ideas speak up.
