Marian,

Thanks again for the compliments. I'm really happy it's getting finished. I only started this thread 5 to 6 weeks ago so your friend would definitely have missed it back then. It'd be great to hear from others who have or are planning to build one of these. Juno is supposedly releasing a .60 size version, maybe it will have foam wings and retracts?!

While looking at a flyer containing monokote colours I saw a newish ARF biplane from GP on the same page and it struck me how similar my proposed scheme and the covering on the ARF was... [&o] Either we're more influenced by what we see subconsciously or the scheme I have in mind is a good one. Nonetheless, it was a little disappointing to see an ARF with my pattern! Well, in the end it won't be quite the same and the colours will be different.

These are the colours I have in mind. Don't know whether I need one more...
