Been too long since I built a kit. I recently got the itch again and bought a kit of a SE.5a. It is based on the plans drawn by Rich Uravitch and the kit cut by The Aeroplane Works.<span style="font-style: italic;"></span> It has a 75" wingspan. I have not managed to find any build posts for this kit here on RCU so if anybody has any pointers to additional information I will be grateful.
I am not planning on doing a full-blown scale effort as I am no artist. I will be doing it based loosely on a civilian plane used in the 20's for sky writing and banner towing. Yes, it will have smoke and banner towing capability. It will be for relaxed flying.
I will post some pics here and on my website soon.
