wheelnut yes they are small warbrids but they are not 4-ch if you look closely so we are still ahed of them at this point in the game. cant wait for the mustang to come in.
I meant they are ahead of us in the way that they have a micro Corsair.
Did you see how cool that thing looked?

I will agree to disagree. without a debate.

That is strange because I was getting ready to ask the guys on the anyplane thread, where the guy from Japan was. I haven't heard from him in a while.

Maybe a miderator will drop by and clear out everything after around post 45 to get this thread back on track?!

OK, I apologize and I did the deletions. Hopefully we will have the plane in a couple of weeks.

Have fun.

Thanks for doing that Ferndale A.F.!

This little mustang promises to be a hoot in my back yard.

No, actually pretty small as far as yards go. My lot is about 1\5 of an acre. Subtract out the part with the house and the front yard and...well you get the idea.

But the little cessna was quite manageable with only rudder and elevator, so with the ailerons added this should be great!

I also have the Cessna, Citabria, Ember, Vapor and Sukhoi. I can fly all of them in my front yard except for the Sukhoi and I don't believe the P-51 will be any different. Actually, I believe it will be a little faster than the Sukhoi.

Why thanks for asking Ron. I just got back from the LHS and they are to be released on the 18th. Hmm that would be next friday. The bad part is that the guy at my LHS said he didn't think his shipment would be in until Tuesday[][].

I should have this broken in by then.

What sense of humor? I missed something in my own post. I shall rephrase, the 23" Pitt's should be rocking the frontyard.

AF, I am also blessed with a large area to fly in out front, I have an old cemetary a couple of hundred yards away. So once I have a bit of altitude I have a lot of sky to play with.

OK, back to the Pitt's.

I just thought it was funny when you said you should have your new Pitts broken by then.

This field is less than a mile from my house. It is two HUGE soccer fields that butt up against 3 baseball diamonds and on the other side of the field is a huge gravel parking lot and another soccer field and a huge area where the city rents out very small garden plots. That makes for alot of air space to play in. Too bad about 50% of the time in the summer, it is taken up by soccer players.

3 days to build and destroyed in 30 seconds? Me? Could happen. Getting ready to maiden it, at the big field, and have to decide on the Unique. Lot's of folks in town today. The Pitt's and the SU-26 are small enough that I should avoid detection.
