Okie Dokes, much delayed roll out but now I've only a few details to work and she is ready for a second maiden flight. I'll wait until the weather moderates as the temps in August are not conducive to old man skin.



From the crash until rebuild only a bit more than a year but there were lots of days and weeks I did nothing on it.

Major upgrades are: One piece lower wing, one piece top wing, on board glow, new brazed landing gear wire, new covering and color, new windshields, and rudder/tailwheel mods.

A bit heavier I suppose but she never lacked power with the Enya VT2.40 up front.

1/3 scale is largely finished as well but may offer it up for sale.

Next up is Charlie Kellogg's TBF but found I had a Dave Platt Bucher Yungmeister kit that I don't remember ever buying. I've an engine and Super Shrink Coverite left so it may take precedence.
