Finally got some paint on. Kind of plain, but heck, it's July and this bird needs to get in the air!

It's not "plain", it's elegant, classic, understated. Gorgeous, too. Looking great, Todd. Now you need to finish and get a flight report posted.

Hey Todd,
Really like the newest paint scheme!! Hardly a plain looking fuselage!! That is going to be one GREAT looking model...Have you come up with a design for the wings/stab as yet??
Real looker in the design and now the paint job!! Charlie

Thanks Mark and Charlie,

I'm ready to have this thing done!!! Been a hard long haul since November... Haven't quite got the details worked out for the wing and stab, but probably will be similar to the fin and rudder. Going to be simple for sure .

Charlie, when am I going to get to see the new Brio?????

That will look outstanding with the wings/stab in the same pattern and easy to find in the sky too!!
Hope to have the Brio at Columbia IF all goes well...and gas doesn't hit 4.00 a gallon!!
But outstanding work there Todd!! Charlie

I wish I had a brother like Todd!

I'm bummed I won't be flying with him at the Omahawks contest this year.

Pretty much done! Have a few minor details left but should be able to put her in the air very soon.
Was hoping to take her to the Columbia contest this coming weekend, but with no test flight she'll have to stay home.

Thanks everyone for your comments during this long build. It kept me inspired to keep moving forward. I started making the mold plug first of November 05 and now almost August 06. I'm tired and ready to relax with some flying!!


I'll give a flight report as soon as I can!


Todd
