Last November I had a flood in my basement and all my planes and radio gear was lost. I had a Hangar 9 Corsair with a SAITO 1.25 and a Sig Somethin Extra built from a kit (my first build) with a os .46 ax both of which are now RIP. My new planes consist of a Hangar 9 P51D with a SAITO 1.80, a Hangar 9 Hellcat with a SAITO 1.25, and the newest editions a Twist 40 and a T-Rex 450. Not pictured is my 28% Edge 540 (second build from kit) and a 28% Wildhare Extra 330. Here are some Pics. Just curious what everyone else has in their hangar these days. I hope my hangar looks the same a month from now!!!!! The Edge 540 is the kit in the pictures. Ok, pics will not upload so I'll put some up later. Until then let's see your planes.

Here's the latest I've been flying.......

what made the basement all of sudden flood?

sump pump?

did u do something to correct the issue?

Here are the four I have in flying condition. The Ultimate Biplane is a World Models ARF and the Yak profile is from AK Models. The Cap is from the GP kit and the Hots profile is scratch built. I'm also in the middle of an Ultra sSort .40+ build, I put my order in for an Ultra Sport .60 kit, I bought a Fun 51 kit today at the club swap meet and I am thinking about another ARF, possibly an Aeroworks Edge 540 or the GP Reactor. I'm sure I will find something else I want too; it never ends.

I evidently had a pipe that was right over my workbench that had some press in fittings and they should not have been that way. The funny thing is I never saw a drip of water in all the arf's or kits that I built, and we all know how much time is involved in each build. When I got home from work the whole basement was about 14 inches deep in water. It worked out good though, got all new planes just had to build them all over again. Took from Nov until about Jan to get most of the building done and here in Chicago, Jan is not flying weather. I did save the Somethin Extra and flew it at the beggining of Feb but a ton of trim. I lost the Somethin Extra two Sundays ago when the right aileron stuck in the full up position. So that is why I have the Twist.
