My second plane was a Jumpin' Geo (feature twice in the RC magazine). It was originally designed and built for fun fly events.
I love my MDS engines. They haven't gotten past the breakin stage so I've only had 5% through them. I'll post on here in the engine forum if I have any problems with it. It'd be a few weeks as I have another set of projects going.
Sorry to hijack your thread, but 'A & B certificate'? What are those?

The A certificate is issued by the British Model Flying Association once a pilot has passed their "A" test, which is a general proficiency test conducted by registered examiners and most clubs in the UK require you to have passed it in order to fly unsupervised, which I guess is similar to your solo standard in the US. The B test is an aerobatic routine, again tested under formal examination and is often quoted as the minimum requirement for a pilot to take part in a public display.
Foamy, until you described your grass strip, I was going to suggest one of the Black Horse ARTFs as a second plane (super/travel/speed air) and whilst I love my super air, it does not love long springy grass! Well actually it's a bit happier now it's got an OS55ax in the nose hehehe
