The Great Planes Ultimate is a great plane to build and fly. The instruction manual is the usual Great Planes excelance and if you follow it step by step, no problems at all. Flying the plane is a snap and it will do most everything you want it to do. As for your covering job, that depends on your abilities and desires. Most any scheme can be applied, but it can be time consuming. Appling covering is also a skill that is learned as you go. Now as for you being in Iraq and not at home, Thanks.
