When you were a crew chief I was just going to pilot training in 1968 at Web AFB in Big Spring TX. Sounds like you had a very interesting career as well, thanks for your service. I am not too discouraged, but certainly aware of the limitations of some ARF manufactures. Are TF ARFs all like this, or are other brands a better quality product? For what TF is getting for this plane it should be substantially better built in my opinion. I don't like cheap, and I don't buy the most expensive, but I do look for value and don't mind paying for it when I get it. This product is not a good value. Glad to hear Hanger 9 is coming up with something, and I will watch to see what other guys, or maybe you, post on its assembly. I am looking forward to flying the P-51D, and will let you know how it went later this week.
