This thread was lost earlier today during the upgrade at RCU so I thought I would start it again, Thanks to Randy Racer for the title. This is a close thread to the Jerry's bigboy thread but since the Spoiler is an improved version we thought we would start this thread so we can talk about both planes and our activities with those planes and pilots. I'm going to start off by posting pics of my Spoiler which was built by me from one of Jerry's early version plans. It is a great flyer. This thread is a evolution from the thread.

finally a thread we can use to help each other with the few Jerry's Big Boys out there and the soon to be Spoilers arf . we also hope for this to be a place for the friendships that have been made on the JBB thread to keep growing by being able to talk with each other and stay in touch.
most of you know that the Jerry's Big boy my Morris Hobbies is no longer being built. it was a truely great flying sport/trainer/ wild as you can stand fun fly plane. the good news is that Jerry L Smith has beed working on and flying a much improved version called the spoiler for the last few years. he has also offered plans for those out there who are real builders, but us non builders had to have someone build for us or buy a used spoiler to enjoy one as i have done.
NOW THE EVEN BETTER NEWS......Chris at EastRc tells us there will soon be a Spoiler ARF so all of us that don't have time/skill/place to build can get in on the fun. hopfully chris will come on here and keep us filled in on the progress.

here are a few more pics to get this thing started, the blue one is a JBB belonging to nogyro, the orange and white is my spoiler i bought from tim garland(great builder), the white spoiler is the spoilermans(great builder with mad flying skills). please post your pics here too.

I see the images are still not working correctly. I heard some hacker was messing with RCU. I wish the low lifes would leave them alone so that we modelers can have a place to talk about our hobby.

Nothing new yet, but don't worry...you guys will be the FIRST to know. Once they get here I guarantee that within 3 minutes I will be posting the good news and probably a picture of my Brother kissing the delivery guy, as scary as that sounds....I'm sure it will look even worse. Hehehe

OK I'm here. My Big Boy is still going strong. Can't wait to get hold of it some more. I'll be waiting for a Spoiler soon. By the way, my Outlaw is almost complete. I just got the OS 32 and pipe today. Other notes: we are trying to get a meeting with the Parks and Conservation Board here to convince them to allow us remove our pine trees. We have swayed a couple of officials and have some arrangements standing by. We just need official permission to proceed with our plan. We hope to get the meeting next week sometime. I will keep you posted.

Spoilers, Spoilers and more Spoilers noone can get enough spoilers. I was trying to think how many I have built since about 2000. Let me think I have built 7 regulator and one mini size since then. Don't have digital pics of all but here are a few.
