the great airplane poll
 
Six 1/4 scale and five 40-60 size ready to fly, lost track of how many are almost ready to fly or still in the box. But that's it no more I promise honey oh wait just one more and then that's it, reminds me of when I was a drinker, just one more %#*hicup%$*& only problem is I could quit drinking but I don't think I can quit flying. Do you think I have a problem??

20 flight ready, 3 spare engines, and enough materials to build about 100 more airframes.

phuffstatler 03-06-2003 08:35 PM

um, let's see...
 
1 SPAD QHOR ready to fly, 1 .40 Cap 232 that needs the wheel pants put back on but otherwise RTF, 1 Sterling Stearman RTF that needs a cylinder on the fake engine glued to keep the crack from spreading, 1 new Perfection kit NIB (will build this!), 1 GP Patriot ARF Nib (but will make a SPAD version instead), 1 GP Fokker Dr1 triplane with the engine and radio gear out of it (bored with it), 1 Marks Models SE5 framed up, but will do a SPAD version now instead, 1 old Midwest Cessna Cardinal NIB, 1 scratch built 1/2A Little Guy, 90% complete. will do a SPAD version instead, 1 set of plans for S**** Sky Baby (Ken Willard True Scale version) that I will make 1/2 scale one day, 1 1/2A delta foamy kit, that I probably won't build, 1 Sig Liberty Sport NIB, 1 about 30% complete 8 foot long SPAD XB-70 Valyrie.

Got three engines laying on the bench, need to make something for those... I think one or two flight packs... a RFFS flight pack needs to go into something... never enough time, it seems...

Down to two transmitters now, a Futaba 9ZAPS, and a Futaba 6XAS (for backup) the rest are long gone...

I think that's all right now. Gotten down to just those, from over 25 RTF before, with over 20 NIB kits from before. It was just too much crap.... pLus a divorce... :D

strikerone 03-06-2003 08:44 PM
