It is very hard to use the builder of the model rule in todays market being that 95%(LoL) of the planes available are pre fab to some degree, even mikes two versions of the bm in kit form has some prefab work done granted not alot but some (just ask melissa) a woman after my own heart(LOL! mike), unless you have the molds in your work shop and are laying up the fuse, cutting the wing cores, yada yada yada all yourself, are you the builder of the model? arguments of good substance can be made on both sides.


I think the concurs D what ever is a good thing and the builder of the model rule invites to much crap to a contest conceived with good intentions!



for the record my plane started as glue and fiberglass cloth,nomex and foam blocks and yes my hands did the work on 90+% of the build under lamars watchfull eye. having said that the fact that I was involved in that much of the build is the reason my plane will not win, just a fact of life!!!!!!
