Hello Jon,

Congrats on the maiden. I have to be quiet honest I have been skeptical of the doors all along wondering if they would snap or pull away from the wing in flight. I absolutely agree they look fantastic on the plane. I wonder if maybe you would have to run a piece of ply connecting two wing ribs for better support. Of course you have to paint them white. Or am I not understanding where the door come apart?

How was the taxiing with the plane? Did it roll down the runway or did it lift at half throttle? Correct me if I am wrong, which I am most of the time according to the house boss. Didn't you put 3 inch wheels on the rear and a 2 1/4 on the front?

Great report Jon. Just remember the end result happened. The plane went up and came back in one piece for you to fly another day. I have had the unfortunate luck of only 9 minutes life span. LOL. My trainer had a mid air with my plane. LOL Oh well what can you do. Anyway, looking great and time to get that 3 blade prop on there and you can park your plane at the local air base.
