I love your "torn away Checker" covering! I think if you dont mind me running with that idea, I may have to apply a scheme like that to my next Extra 300 Profile! I'm impressed! I swear, I have no imagination for good covering jobs...
I love this Thread!

If you need a low skill test pilot then send that beautiful .60 to me I have an Enya .80 that would be right at home with that plane.

Billy - Aeron-60
You know Billy, you can't imagine how many offers I get like yours. I have the wings ready to cover, as you can see from the previous pic. I am also designing a different set of wings for it that are triple tapered. Since the wings are removable, I am going to experiment with the two sets of wings to see whick I prefer and then kit it with the wing design of choice.
I recently got a MVVS 77 with a tuned pipe and header for it. I am also having custom carbon fiber landing gear being made for it. So far, with the aircraft 'boned-out' and a Saito 91 4C clamped in place, the Aeron-60 weighed out at 4-1/2 lbs (hadn't received the MVVS yet when weighed). Of course this did not include landing gear, servos, batt. pack. etc. I am hoping to bring the aircraft in under 6 lbs.
Should be pretty awesome at less than 6 lbs. with the MVVS 77 combo on it.
I was going to put the Saito 91 on it initially, then switch later to the MVVS 77, but I don't want to put a bunch of holes in the engine mounting rails. I am not a fan of 4Cs, but that is personal preference.
I hope that I will have it flying in the next three weeks or so.

I took your advice on the Knife and love. It is still pulling towards the canopy during knife edge but I'm working on it. My first kit will be one of yours. I tell everyone my Knife is the second best 3d plane out there. After memorizing your site I'm assuming your planes are the King Daddies of funfly profiles.

'Big Daddies'? I'm not sure that I would use that phrase. I try to design the ultimate in Fun Flys, because that is what I like. I enjoy people watching one of my aircraft fly performing manuvers that there is no name for.
Whether my Fun-Fly designs are the ultimate in Fun-Flys? You'll have to ask my customers.

Lets See Some Fun Fly Plane Pics
I finally made some decent pics of my Ultimate FF. Here's a link to the first pic. You can also find my trainer (Sig Fazer), and my Somethin' Extra on my website.

Here is the Aeron-60 Proto-type covered so far. I have yet to make the simulated canopy for it.

Kevins colors
Hey Kevin,
Do you buy white, blue, yellow and maroon covering material in bulk LOL? It looks good. I just put my Cermark Pitts/Saito180 up for sale, seems I'm not happy unless I'm TRing down the runway he he.

Jens - I need to get the big rolls of covering, since I do use the same colors all the time (for the most part). I use these colors because I am extremely color blind, and I find that these are the colors that I can see in the air the best.
Rick - I do not have pricing on the Aeron-60 yet. I have just designed a new set of wings for it. The new wing set is going to be triple tapered. I am getting the new wing ribs cut this week (I hope). I will fly it with boths sets of wings and then decide which set to market this new kit with. You can go to my website to see more pics of the Aeron-60 under construction. I offer two different means of attachment of the wings in the construction manual (that I am working on). One way is to have hardwood blocks with 6-32 thread inserts installed in the ends of the wing tube. The other way is to attach the wings on the outside of the fuse with blind nuts installed inside the fuselage and 'ears' on the inside wing ribs using 6-32 button head screws.
The servo wires are routed through the fuse for the elevator and rudder servos. There is a hatch on both wings on the proto-type so that I can play with the location of the gear inside to adjust the lateral balance and CG location.
The fuel tank will be mounted on the outside. You could mount it inside the wing if you want, though I would be afraid that you'd have to run a pump if the tank was in the wing. I prefer it on the outside. I had one in the wing that leaked and ruined the plane
So no more!
Check out the other pics at:

Billy - The vertical stab and rudder are full symetrical, which will give it more authority (as if a needed it! ). I should see the carbon fiber landing gear for it in about a week and a half.

The Latest "Hots"
Well, this latest version is an improvement over all of it's previous sisters. I added to all the surfaces, made the tank accessiable, and squared off the wing tips. It"s still "WILD", but easier to work on and a whole lot more stable on landing.
I was really having fun with her today till my curiosity got the better of my judgement. Oh well, I still know that I now have the recipe for what I am sure is the best flying Hots you will ever see. After I get a few "test" planes built by a few people, mabye one might just be at your field one day too.....
Here are some pre-poor judgement photos.....
