As usual I'm a late starter. I managed to find this plane at Chief Aircraft (they had all of one in stock, no where else I called had any at all and had no idea if they would be getting any more....is this plane discontinued?...guy at Horizon I talked to seemed to think so). I wanted a easy flying P40 (as opposed to the great looking CMP 60 size Curtiss P40 Lawn Dart, rare model...get um while they last), about the only allied plane I like...I usually go for the German birds. Anyway, the firewall will be glassed for strength to halt separations (Saito 100). My other concerns are the stories of stabilizers snapping and the plane doing a CMP P40 impression. Can anyone give any advice on beefing this area up to avoid this problem?, light glass and recover maybe? I'd like to have this plane around for a long time. I've already dodged a bullet and got an undamaged box from the brown truck today, I paid $115 for next day, figured the shortest amount of time they had it in thier possession the less they'd be sitting on it to eat lunch or playing soccer with it in the warehouse wearing steel toe boots. Opened the box....pristeen, I wept (my wife, however, did not when she saw the outer carton and stared at me with her hand on her hip and said, "another one?"  , of course I also credit Chief Aircraft for properly labeling and packaging it.
