Spike,

The Juka ROCKS! Really nice flying plane. Very slow and has a nice mix of precision and 3D. I plan on getting a lot of time in with it as it will easily fly in my backyard.

Dude that Juka is just amazing! If I had not been over to SNAP's and watch him airbrush I would not believe he did these. Nice work, that is the best one yet, I would have a hard time giving that one away.
On the other hand I still really like my tape colored schemes, that is my new 38"DW Yak Attack that I need to assemble this week.

I was browsing through some really old pics on the computer and came across a very early foamie I built from some free plans. This is 'old school' style when you use to have to actually cut your depron. I had heard mention of lightning and this was my first atempt. A little airbrush action and a white paint-marker pen in the center lines.

Yah, it's fairly easy. Just some white haze and the white paint pen. I want to revive my old Badger Airbrush and give it some more work on foamies. You are making me green with envy

This will greatly increase my motivation to get my newly trimmed foam built. Low full throttle snaps will do it for me most of the time. Totally fixable, but the replacement is ready to go.

Snap, I really think you need a real job. I mean it looks like you have a plane for each day of the month.

Fo Shizzle Troy! Lol, actually had to cut the plane out? That is old skool...

Speaking of school, I'm out in 2 weeks, so that means I'll have a whole summer to work on planes

Ouch rpm. That happened on the first flight? I don't think I've ever had that happen before. And I need to work on my snaps. snap is good at them

No I've had that CR-1 for well over a year, But need the gear to go into my new DW Yak. So Yesterday I started doing high speed snaps lower and lower and finally killed it.
Stay tuned I got a sneak peak of SNAPS new airbrushed Juka BAF, Let me just get it out now. It is by far his best work yet and we should somehow stop him from ever flying it.

We should get Leesburg to sign it, like he did with Joes plane out at MWE. Then Joe should frame it. Sow it off all over the web.
