RE: Pattern planes Why do they cost so much
OK but I still struggle with getting things lined up perfectly even with my sport plane kits. I just haven't seen how people get everything trued up. These sport kits are pretty much self aligning. At this point, I fly a Wind 110. I don't think I could build a plane that straight without somebody showing me some of the tricks of the trade. I can iron on covering pretty well and I think after seeing how Isaac covered his Xigres I could even do a simple but nice color scheme. Maybe with a little research and a book or video I could take on building a pattern plane. Maybe next season. This season I'm flying the Wind 110.
