Geoffrey....you're not trying to make me cry, are ya? Miss you guys too! Couldn't ask for a better bunch of scale addicts than the boys in Minny!
And folks, if you're not familiar, F4u is probably the best stick I've seen in my 35 plus years in this hobby. The guy could fly an ironing board with the correct power!

The photo is of the maiden day for the proto on the Hellcat...and guess who flew that initial, nerve-wracking flight? That's my buddy right behind me in the pic. What a job he did on the overtly-nose heavy first flight! Sure wish he was here to maiden the new Andersen IAR-80 I'm working on! Youda man Jeff!
And AC2..can you believe I had to travel 2000 miles to meet a fellow Vikings fan on the west coast? Sure appreciate the kind words from you guys!

Jeff
