Man I am glad I started this club First I have to say Ken you must be on of the most patient people in the world . Your covering work looks flawless.

jlingrel , I was thinking of building the .40 size shrike and definitely will be interested in a build thread for adding the retracts or just the build period.

vt325xi thats using your head, a twin engine shrike would definitely open some eyes at the field.

The one thing I noticed in some of the pics, is the noses on the shrike has to be opened up a bit to accommodate the engine. I was worried about the look of my nose but won't be any more and will try it with a .28 MAGNUM engine this weekend. I know , with the MAG engine I am taking a chance but thats the beauty of having building skills, repair is not a chore.
