Freddy,
It doesn't matter whose rules they are , if it makes no sense, it makes no sense. If the planes are restricted to the current size and all other rules in place, what precisely will get out...

RE: F3a The Future

I don't think you have to regret asking that question at all. That is a very logical question and one that I have been wondering about myself for several years now. I have remained silent on this...

RE: TALON EXTREME by Randy Hicks Designs

RE: NSRCA Candidate Rules Proposal Survey is available

RE: The 800-pound gorilla sitting in the corner

I don't think Micheal Vic played football from the time he was arrested until he was released from prison. And Tiger, although he will have to answer to a higher power, I don't think he was arrested...

RE: My first pattern plane build

Astropuppy,
I used Dupont Chroma Premier paint and clearcoat. The white on the fuse is singlestage and everything else is base/clear. The reason for that is the singlestage is 100% fuel proof, the...

RE: My first pattern plane build

It's time to get back to work on the Talon project. I put that project on the back burner in order to repair a crashed Shinden. If you would like to read about that project, go to Bryan Hebert's...

RE: CA Models VISA

Thanks Chip
That's what I wanted to know. I've used 7776 clear before it is a very nice product especially if you need it to dry quickly.

I own a body shop and have been painting cars for 30 years. I know all about isocyanates. I didn't think my question was that difficult. I wanted the Part # for the "new" clear that Chip...

RE: My first pattern plane build

RE: My first pattern plane build

I finally finished the chin cowl process, here are some photos. The final part came out pretty good but I think I might make another one. This was by far the most difficult layup so far. I learned a...

I guess I have an unfair advantage in the paint department because I own a auto body shop. So I know nothing about any of the hobby paints. If you used automotive paint it can be sprayed...

RE: My first pattern plane build
