Hy guys

I finally fininsh my LT-40 , and it looks great I know that it has been a while since you have heard from me but it takes time to do the first cycle . I built myself a paint booth for the toxic fumes of the dope and the paint spray , and may I say I am glad that I did . I took the plane out for it s first flight last Sunday , had to wait for the weather to clear . Up hear in Saint-Jerome ( north of Montreal ) all we get is rain , rain , and when thats over a little more rain . The plane flew great with very little trimming , I was doing the , shaking all over thing . The guys in the club were very impressed with the finish , even thougth it was my first . I wasn t so proud of it because my expectations are a little higher, they made me feel it was a great job done . Although it came out a little bite heavy it still flew well at 7LBS 5OZ , I had my Saito 56 on it with a 12x6 prop , it dose fly heavy , I made a beautiful 3 point landing For my firt plane I m pleased

My next project is the Tiger 60 with retracts from Carl GoldBerg ( I ve already started ) , I plan on putting an OS 91 in it This is only because I will be planning on putting the 91 in my nezt plane , I m just trying to save a little money by purchaseing one engine . If it s too powerful I ll just throudle back . The engine weighs the same as an OS-60 The guys at the club said it was a good second plane .

Sorry I cann t send pitures I would love for you guys to see it . I will contineau to do my planes in Koveral , the difference is in apperance and durability very happy that I did this . I have retired my trainner ALPHA -40 and very happy to do so

Thanks for all youre help
