Dale,

Good on ya ole bloke for the rebuild leg pull. Haaaw. I'd send an extra plug myself but it got stuck when I tried to blow it out my trumpet. I don't remember signing the box. I thought we signed the wing at Rog's. I could be wrong because I sign my name so many times - autograph seekers - its hard to remember what I write on (except for those young ladies who insist . . . well, this is a family forum.

I'm guessing even a permanent marker is dissolved by fuel. Box signing would last, or if you wanna put a small decal on the plane somewhere that would be cool too.

Yea, when I saw it the stuff on the wing was begining to fade, so I signed the wing and the box, and added a small decal to the inside of the box.

No- all the names are still on the wing and box - I was just careful when I cleaned the wing not to clear the page.
Rog - I will put the " NC " under the name for you - no problem

If you use just a paper towel damp with warm water to clean the wing, the sig's will last longer. One good swipe with a degreaser will "clear the page" as Schu put it.

Shouldn't you have the picture of the actual traveling plane on the site?

Not trying to pick... the site is working fine now.

If Grace travels through Canada, I would sure like to have her here in Portage la Prairie ( Manitoba ). We have a rc club here and we fly on a field that is used during the day for full size military helicopter training and at the end of the day and during weekends it's available to rc models.

Its never too late to sign up - Layback2 and Billym8228 I'll add you to the roster!

Bruce, to answer your question it looks like it will be on the west coast in May if eveyone takes two weeks to fly then ship. I'm hoping that it doesnt take that long but it is heading through the frozen north for the next couple stops so them boys are at the mercy of the weather.

When flyers get the heads-up that the plane will be coming to them next, they might want to get their camera ready, get a receiver set, and plan ahead for some time to fly. The pilot after you will probably appreciate any extra day you can save

Who has it now? I think it's very important to sound off when you get it.

Hey folks,

I've got it right now, and right on schedule! We've been fighting low temps and winds for the past 10 days, but I'll get it to the next person ASAP.

I'm not involved.... but I think the designer and builder should get a "look" at her after 100 flights... then continue, if you want to. "Opinions are like as. ..... etc. and they ALL STINK" ...For what it's worth...

Well folks, between snow, rain and wind this weekend, Ma Nature has again conspired to keep GRACE grounded in my neck of PA. I'm going to send her along in hopes that others have better luck, and perhaps she can come my way again on the back side of the tour.

Given that it's December and with many cold and windy months ahead, my suggestion is that we reroute GRACE to warmer climates until spring. This would mean redoing the duty roster, so Fluggie this is your call.

Let me know your thoughts, and where to send it next.

EG
