...judging from the profile and attitude of that beast in the road, I would say he, too, was the product of British engineering!!
LOL! Spot on!
Anyway, we've discussed the C of G situation with Jukka and came up with a cunning plan! While I rest, ski and gererally enjoy the finer moments in human life, Jukka works he's tail off to find me some suitable ballast material and laminates a set of scale exhausts to house some of the weight. I think this sounds fair enough. For me that is.
But seriously I got to tell you all: Jukka has really made an exceptional effort with this plane, and these small set backs are really nothing compared to the work and love he has poured into making this plane. So all this ballast BS is merely just minor inconvenience. Nothing more. It's about two evenings work, if that.
