Default RE: My new Reedy for 1/2a Texaco

ORIGINAL: hfenn

Now let's see the airplane!
Ok, here it is.

This a BAG - Born Again Gassy. It started life as an Electric Old Timer and was flown that way for a couple of summers.

Yet to do (obviously from the picture) is to make a new motor mount/fire wall for the Cox motor and fuel proof the pylon which was originally painted with Krylon. Even though I intend to convert this engine to diesel I still want the flexibility to run it as a glow engine if so inclined, hence the need to fuel proof.

I haven't decided how to fuel proof the pylon yet but I am leaning towards a top coat Klass Kote clear. Any other options to fuel proofing?

cheers, Graham in Embrun near Ottawa Canada
