Hey Guy's just a couple of pics of a SPAD Kaos 60 I'm building using the old RCM plans. And thought I'd add a few musings I had today out in the shop.

You know you're a SPADdict when:

(1) You can build an entire flying model built entirely from items available at Ace
Hardware.
(2) You are constantly on the look-out for Coroplast cigarette signs especially after
a wind storm.
(3) You buy an item from a store that you don't really need because the plastic
bottle it comes in would make a great canopy.
(4) You have to replace your kitchen cutting boards due to attrition rather than
being worn out.
(5) You see something made out of plastic and wonder how you can make it fly.
(6) Construction site dumpster diving is just a normal part of life.
(7) Your wife pats you down whenever you're headed to your shop from the kitchen.

Propbuster,
You have clearly Identified our illness. My wife calls me a SPADdict all the time! I have found my self walking into these large Box stores like menards not needing a thing. Then walking each ailse looking for the next spad componet spending hours in there with a rush going thru me that only a gold miner could identify with. Do you thing we should start a help line? Mail out directions to SPADFEST08!!!

Team Abby Normal (kind of says it all)
