Default RE: Lost interest in a build

Well, guys, no one, so far has beatin' me for procrastination!!LOL!!

In 1986 I built a Miles Reed designed Weeks Special, flew it until about '96 when it went in because of wing flutter. Because the tail feathers survived, and it was such a great flier, I promised myself I'd build another one. So about '97 I started another one, bought new wheel pants, cowl and canopy, built the fuselage and it sat for 10 years, while I played around with one plane after another. 3 yrs. ago I got around and built the bottom wing, but lost my entusiasm again. A year ago I built the top wing, and because of other projects it sat until this summer and I finally got around and finished it. Before I left for the winter in AZ, I got 5 flights on it and it still one of the prettiest, sweetest flying planes in the barn. I've posted some of the pictures before, but here she is. When I look at her I wonder why I waited so long.
