Bridi Kaos 60 - Fox .74
Lanier ST40 - Built straight wing - MDS .48
70" Big Stick - Enya 1.20 4Stroke
Looking the list over I seem to be partial to Sig and Thunder Tiger Pro .46's.

RE: What's in your fleet for the new season
Got to fly yesterday with 59* and 5 mph winds. It was a great day....on to the question:
1. 4*60 - OS91 Surpass
2. Magic Extra - OS46FX
3. Ultra Stick 60 - OS61 FX
4. U-Can-Do 46 - Saito 72 (Just bought it over a week ago. The Saito is awaiting repair parts. It was in a pretty bad crash last
Fall, and will be reused.)
5. SIG Something Extra - OS46FX (I am just finishing it and should be done in a week or two. Then on to the U-Can-Do.)
6. Finally, I hope to get enough money together to get and Ultra Stick Lite with a G-26 on it. If my plans go right, I should have it in
in the air by late June.
That's it for me.
