RE: WACO YMF
I choose pro-am because my flying skills aren't as good as I'd wish. Thanks for the compliment about building. Up here in the Nawth it's hard to get in enough practise time to get back the skills I once had. Isn't there a country song something like that? Also summer weekends are divided with family too. Not making excuses....just the facts. Mitch WB100

I have a feeling someone is going to be just a tad bit rough on ya and any non-scale features like wing tips etc: [&o]
Maybe if you let him fly it he might cheer up a bit!!!

RE: WACO YMF
I've built Dario's 26% Skybolt (twice!) and loved every minute of it. Trying to reduce the weight somewhat, but the G62 handles it very nicely. Would love to get a set of Dario's Waco ARE plans! Any available?

RE: WACO YMF
Thanks John - I found the AMA 1/6 scale set but I would like the larger 87" wingspan. I have sent an E-mail, sort of on spec., to the address listed in the house of Moy, but I'm not sure if Dario is still alive and plans still available. We shall see. I think the ARE would make a nice stable mate for the YMF!! Next winter's project perhaps if I can find the plans. I have the plans for Dario's Skybolt, which I have built and his Starduster and Frankly, whether I build them or not the plans are just beautiful enough to mount on my living room wall!! Yes I live alone!!

Dick Watz is in the process of drawing a Cabin Waco. Knowing him, I'd be very surprised if it were not 100% scale outline. I don't know when he'll be finished with it, but it will probably be right behind the UPF-7.

RE: WACO YMF
Is there any word on the "t" shirt order. I sure woul like to be able to wear one as a spectater at top gun this year. Best show on earth. Just recieved a pile of waco drawings from nat air and space museum. The three views of the ubf are almost big enough to use as a patern for a 30 size model. How am I supposed to show copies to a judge, the paper would weigh more than the model:::::::Time now to start drawing up some fuselage formers, and convert this into a xjw1. Hope to see some brothers at top gun.
