LOL Chad. Good luck derailing this thread. This thread is like a private face book. Only it has a better topic.

RE: TF GS P47 Build - yeah another bloody one!!
Since there are no 47 updates. Yes I still check every day. I'll give you guys an update on my Little Fokker. All the main wood parts are built up. I'm working on the struts. This is the first time in my life that I had to do this. It's not that hard just labor intensive. They are all set up and soldered together. I have to mount the wood on it next. I'm planning on Glassing and painting the struts.
Here are some pictures for Bob. Yes I have lots more but the build thread is on Flying Circus.

RE: TF GS P47 Build - yeah another bloody one!!
Those who don't know my Dad passed away early in the morning of Friday 8th March Brisbane time. We had the funeral the following Tuesday. Been a bit of a blur the last week. My partner Trudy did the service for us and it was quite beautiful, I am very blessed to have her in my life as she was a pillar of support for both myself and Mum.
Have gone back to work today and getting back to a normal life again. Step daughter and step Grandaughter have moved in with us as well so we are "packed to the rafters" pun intended! Lots and lots of boxes everywhere so my workshop has not progressed as you can imagine.
Hopefully I will be back to it in due course.

Hi Guys,
Just wanted to make sure you P-47 enthusiasts check out the pics of my P-47 here -
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_11..._4/key_/tm.htm
There is also some more on the next page of that thread.
Thought this might help to inspire Pete to get his done. It would be cool to fly this with Pete's as it is pretty much the same size.
Cheers
Mick
