Default RE: PATTERN AIRPLANE

I want to thank everyone for the quick replies. After some follow up on the information supplied I now believe it is a Speeda. For power it has a Super Tiger .61 Bluedhead. I got both the airplane and engine at an estate sale for $15.00. A great bit of luck on my part. I sent the engine to Bart Phillips in New Mexico for inspection and repair as neccessary. It came back with all new bearings and piston ring. So power should be no problem. As for the airplane I installed a set of E-flite retracts and put a servo on each aileron. Now if some one could provide me with the CG range that would be great. The orignal owner/builder did put some marks on the fuslage which I believe are the CG range markings, but I'd like to make sure. If I don't get distracted i hope to fly it this week end.
