I didn't get a chance to weigh the plane before covering.
I did after and it's dry weight is 5lbs 3 oz. with the OS .45 FSR and all electronics mounted.

I'll be using the same covering on my Citabria. I'll be sure to weigh it before covering.

OK Fellas,

Here's a couple of pictures for you. The first one is a 35% Carden Extra done in red, yellow and white Ultracoat. The plane belongs to a good friend of mine and I just had to post the picture here, and yes, that is an airbrushed Tru-turn spinner on the nose. The second is my 80" Midwest Extra 300 and the last is my 40 size Kaos RIP .

Fly safe and have fun!!!
David

Bunch of great looking planes in here! Fun thread. After seeing a number of Aeromasters, including some of the original Andrews' versions, I decided to post a few pix. I built my Aeromaster from an old Andrews kit a very good friend gave me. It won first place in the only static competition I ever entered it in. The other two are of my Midwest Citabria and a Super Kaos built a few years ago from an old Great Planes kit. All are still flying. Currently have a CG Ultimate and CG Chipmunk on the board.

See pix a little further down in the thread...

Okay, so how do I get the small thumbnails? I've tried a couple of times to edit and reattach the images, always with the same results. Sorry that my pix came through so big.

When I upload pics, first, I click "reply" in the upper right of the post I'm replying to. Then, when I'm typing my post I click "Click here to upload images and files" at the bottom left. Then I browse to the pics on my hard drive, and follow the onscreen instructions.

And, as long as I'm replying, I guess I'll include a couple pics of my PT-19, covered with Ultrakote.
