The Ultimate is also a great flying plane. Not quite the flyer that the Extra but close and a lot of fun to build. After building 3 of them, let me know if you get one, i can share some tips if you would like.

Speaking of Lusterkote, it is ok paint, it takes some getting used to and has to be put on in thin layers with a few minutes to flash off between coats. Funny you mentioned Missle Red, i just this morning put Missle Red on the cowl. A better name for it might be Missle Orange. It is not as red as the Ultracote, but not too bad either, i guess i am just a bit to picky.
