Senior Telemaster reincarnation
My sons and I wrapped our senior telemaster into a tree last summer. The thing is so darn big I did not realize it was so far out while on approach. Anyway the fuselage was trashed and the wing got banged up. Pics of this plane last summer are at http://www.devino.org/mark/airplanepics/telemaster.jpg
I bought a new fuselage kit from Hobby Lobby and got started on it this winter. This kind of older kit is a pain in the butt. I gave the fuselage framing job to a club member. He did a great job on that while I worked on the wing. I have now completed the plane.
It has a working bomb bay with a side loading door. Power is a really old OS .90 four stroke. It has not been re-maidened yet but it is ready to go.

Cheech,
Really a nice looking rebuild. Wish I could do as good new! But I'm getting there. This winter I'm building my first plans build. A Cloud Dancer 60. I like your color scheme. Looks like you'll have no problem keeping orientation.
Once again great looking plane.
