Hey Greg. Its great to see on you here. It looks like the old school crew is getting back together on here. I know you missed posting and reading the rcgroups thread, but don't worry this one is just as good

Yo G!

Don't ask! I was fooling around with it yesterday and crashed the whole thing! I got the original version back online today. It's a work in progress, but it's getting there.

I'm almost ready to concede he flies a little better than me, but I'm closing the gap.

Check him out.

Greg that website is looking good bro . Blake just cleaned house at a bunch of events didn't he? He has come a long way since the RCACF days. Foushi and some of us were talking about making a Website for all the giant warbird pilots in Central Florida. Putting up some pictures of pilots and planes in the club and area, especially some of the WWI guys like Rich F. And Scott. Arnold wanted to get some more internet exposure for his warbirds after I hooked him up on rcwarbirds with his P-38. I'll get you the website name later, talk to Foushi he'll tell you about it.

Thanks Pete. Yes, I'm pretty sure he's possessed by some kind of flying demon.

G$.....If you scroll down towards the bottom you can see Arnold. I don't think you have seen this website before. If you go to the P-47 page you can see my Jug. Foushi is going to send his La-7 when it gets done. It will be cool to send Foushi's and Steve's together at Top Gun.

Here is the link....

Enjoy

I took the wooden jigs that are for holding the wings as in pic #1 and cut off 2 pieces of the leading edge side and inserted them in the 2 grooves I plowed in a piece of 3/4" plywood.
Will make hinging all those wangs a little easier !
