RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
 

I have been flying for 31 years and many of the plane's from the past have been reduced to a fule-soaked puddle of balsa, or given to someone.

My current "air force" consists of the following :

Modeltech 1/3 scale J-3 Cub (Zenoah 62)
Hanger 9 Sukhoi SU-31 1/3 Sacle (Zenoah 80)
3W Xtra Fun (3W-24)

Midi Stick (MDS 38)
Q-Tee (TD 09)
Mini Hots
TT Champion 45

Kits

Sukhoi SU-26 1/3/ Scale
CAP 21 1/4 Scale

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
 

Heres a few

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
 

I don't know - 5 flyable maybe, 6 stuffed in closets and 4 re-kitted.

Flyable - EAA Biplane, Sig 4*, scratch built park flier, Sig Demoiselle, CG bucker

In the works - 140 scratch built wide body pattern plane (own design, plugs finished ready for carbon/kevlar, wings and tail finished. Estimate total cost of "kit"$200 - compared to similar ZNLine at $1400 ++++++ What a joke.) Did build a lot of it from junk I had around the shop though. One piece wing, composite fuse, fixed gear. It's an experiment in being frugal.

Have found that I can turn out a disposable foam plug for a fuse in under 6 hours! Each can be a different design.

RE: How Many Airplanes Do You Have In Your Hangar?
 

Waaall, let's see here

5 that are charged and ready to fly
3 that are ready to fly minus engine
2 that are ARF's under construction
1 that is being rebuilt
3 waiting to be rebuilt
3 ARF's on order
2 kits on the boards
1 retired 'cause it's a piece of @%#$

I think that about covers it
