RE: Sig Ryan STA

I remember looking through the old Sig catalogs and LHS dreaming of flying the Ryan STA with its bold front end and bright colors. Two weeks ago I went to a small swap and found not one but two models that have been on my "to build" list since my start in this hobby sometime in the mid '80s. One was the SIG Ryan STA special. The other was the Sig Liberty Sport biplane. I remember visiting the local shop and looking at both of these. Something about them just called to me but as a teenager I didn't have the money, time, or skills.
Truth be told I may not be much better off today. My last kit build was a Sig Aqua Star about four years ago and really enjoyed getting back to actual building. But I purchased both kits at bargain prices which put a smile on my face. I look forward to your thread and sharing my eventual build with my two boys ages 7 and 9. So I have been looking for information online trying to decide which kit was going to be the project for this winter. Part of the choice will depend on power. I'm thinking a Satio 90. The power and sound just seem to suit this model.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>My other concern is proper covering and finish.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>So please include details of everything you plan to do!
