Default This Snow is Something Extra

Well, 26" of snowfall in 5 days lent for some great basement time. I am a pretty fast builder, but when I got the time to just get it done, a new plane arose quickly. I have for a long time heard how great the something extra's are, but finally bought one. this Plane FLEW together. WOW do I love laser cut parts.

I love the way this thing will go together at the field, i wish all planes were that way.

the only big modification i did to it was i added about an 1 1/4" to the rudder. other than that, she is stock. i think it is going to be my new favorite plane.

The biggest problem I have, is that I dont have any covering that i wanna use for this plane, so thats why im on the computer, Tower here i come. Might just sneek another SSE on the order. LOL

Any suggestions for the color scheme? Chime in! Im thinking im gonna go with a couple of pearls. (teal and white?) Im a monokote fan.

By the way, Tori is my setter that helps me build. That is until the sanding bar comes out, then she goes and hangs out with mom. She hates balsa dust.
