ORIGINAL: PLANE JIM

I got a real piece of junk(not to complain but I am)-a Big Stik from cedar hobbies, this thing is huge and the covering which resembles holiday Saranwrap and it is built out of wood that is not light ply or balsa-it reminds me of the wood used in bushel baskets and fruit cratesat the farmers market and it seems heavy. I do not know how much she paid but I hope it was not much, it is thought that counts right?
Hopefully wifey did not pick up on your disappointment, would be a shame for her to feel bad about giving you a plane. If she thinks she did bad it will never happen again. Put it together as good as you can and take wifey with you when you maiden it. I am sure it will fly fine and if you give it a chance you will like it. Everyone needs a plane they are willing to fly when conditions are poor or to use as a test bed for new engines ....

My wife said that she was tired of me not flying my planes on 72. so she fixed that --a new Spectrum DX7 and 6 AR7000 recevers. Sure made my Xmas!

Awww.[sm=regular_smile.gif][sm=teeth_smile.gif] You've had a perfect Christmas. If you didn't get the cute little dog, you could have had 4 more planes...am I right? Don't ask me how I know...you can figure it out.

I got a Nitroplanes electric Extra 330L - it was a nice surprise! I looked it up - on sale for $69, and I had it built and ready to fly by the 26th! Now THAT is what I call an ARF...unfortunately, it was under-powered and too windy...so it's a bit dinged up...but it will fly later today I think.

I also bought myself a present at the field....someone had a brand new, RTF Great Planes Corsair (.15 size) with an OS .30 4 stroker in it. Couldn't say no because of the little 4-banger! So that will fly today as well....

I'm not into little planes, but they sure make fun little Christmas presents! My wife is the coolest!
