<span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS"><span style="font-size: medium">well, the trip to the dirt has been put off til the middle of march. so far, anyhow. i still haven't received my miniplane from Sig yet. not sure how long it's going to take to get it, but hopefully by the end of this week or sometime next week i will come home to it on the porch or something. i'm not sure i'm going to rip into it straight away or try waiting til i get back home this fall, but i'm planning to at least rip the box open and take a couple pics of the contents and stuff and start the thread for the build. but it's probably going to start off slow unless someone else is building at the same time, the same plane. at least slow for me. but anyhoo... the new thread is going to be titled simply: "sig smith mini build", in the kit building forum. like i said, hopefully in a couple of days. i'm kind of tinkering with a scratch build of a Rich Uravitch extra 3.25 in the mean while. just cutting out the wing pieces. </span></span>
