Default Crooked Tail Feathers

Thanks Bill,

hmmmm ... maybe a twin Aircruiser 25 is not such a bad idea afterall. I'd hate having a perfectly good fuselage lying around with no one to fly it...

Here I thought kit bashing was a bad thing ... and it turns out I've been kit bashing for 30 years.
When I was a kid I took a wing from a rubber band powered Hawker Hurricane ... added twin booms, twin rudders, one cox 0.049, and made myself a control line plane out of it. It flew pretty well until I plowed it in going straight down and snapped off the tail feathers. After that, I never could get the tail light enough to balance properly ...
Cheers!
