RE: Lets see your Biplane!!!
Hi To Fellow builders / Flyers
Thought it was about time I returned the favour! for sometime I have enjoyed the photos and stories from threads like this. started when my wife saw me drooling over photos - so Christmas 2009 I got a 2 setsof plans; 1/4 Dave Platt Bucker Jungmeister and a Hawker Typhoon. so now a year on and handcutting materials my build was complete, so dumbthumbs (me) thought it will be easy to launch, after another month repairing I enlisted one of our clubs instructors to test ( seeyoutube; Cwpelvse7za)WOW overjoyed to see it in the air, just got to get my thumbs working and enjoy. Stats: 65 inch wingspan, 4.5kg weight, ASP FS 91 motor.

RE: Lets see your Biplane!!!
John,
I have a secret love for the Jungmeister, too, and I also have the Platt plans. Did you consider a kit/short kit from Precision?
FYI, I put Cwpelvse7za in the YouTube search field bud did not find anything - I would like to see how that plane flies!

OK, not much to look at, but flies great and only stands me £20.
Boddington Bistormer at 72", with pumped OS .90. (the engine cost a bit more than £20, mind)

Cedric seems to be enjoying this low past at the Charleston, IL flyin last year. Picture was taken by local news reporter who wrote a nice story for the newspaper. It's an Aeromaster that I bought and rebuilt a few years ago.
