Default RE: PRIMUS Build

You can't have too many SPA planes built !! I am building this Primus to fly from short fields, bombed out fields, and as a backup to my other planes. It will land much slower. I noticed there is a fiberglass Atlas kit on e-bay. I'm bidding on it but I believe it will go over my budget at the end. Here is a before and after of the supplied elevators in the kit. It took about 20 minutes of sizing and sanding work to match the trailing edge of the stab. I am going to glue the top fuse former on today to complete the fuse. You will notice the fuse has to be squeezed and squared to match the top. I'll be taking a building break from the 20th to the 26th to go on a trip. I'll be at the NATs on the 17th. Skip
