RE: post some pictures of your pattern plane!!
First, this pattern plane is quite old, a D. Hanson model, Ariel. The plane may be as old at 26 years..but has been
carefully refurbished. the fuselage is fiberglass and sports new paint job for the new millineum(sp). Retracts are original and, has
aluminum wing tube and pull-pull rudder. The engine presently in pics will be replaced with a ys of course..unless another
suitable engine is suggested as better (fit and power).
This is my 1st pattern and don't plan to compete, I just love the lines of the planes and their maneuvers(sp).
Here are some pics:
