Duane,

I have not forgotten the parameters of the first build. That is one of the reasons I am going to finish my first Simla in Ed's colors. However, in the interest ofaffirmative progress, a few liberties on a second build not only seem to be okay, but almost in demand. I admit to being one of those people who is always in search of a better "mouse trap".After all, if we had not made a few improvemnets on the Wright Brothers original design where would the F-22 Raptor be? The bottom line for me at least is this forum, the build, the people, the Simla, future prospects, and so forth all add to the great good fun of being a part of the R/C community!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW- Has there been any more discussion on the "Simla Fly In"( for lack of a better name)? I have really begun to look forward to such a gathering. More great good fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bill
