Steelwoolghandi- Why would he put a transmitter in the airplane? I'd use a receiver if it were mine. HEHE.
Actually, plane is looking nice.

See I was not wrong, no room for a Transmitter!!
No I was not saying that there was no room at all for the electronics and such just saying it looked cramped is all.
Again its looking Incredible and I am on pins and needles to see the finished plane!

MinnFlyer:
All these years I have been heeding your advice and to find out you don't know anything. "GO Vikes?????"

SkynrdMan: Don't listen to people from across the border! Plane looks good! Get some time on your trainer before taking this one up-looks like it will be a nice aerobatic sport flyer.

RE: Oh Joy, Oh Rapture....
ysrcflyer Yes! I love it! Nice colors!
Where do you fly ysrcflyer? I need to get on a buddy box for a few landings. Any chance I could hook up with you?
As far as flying the Rapture I need a lot more time on my trainer before I'll consider taking it up.

RE: Oh Joy, Oh Rapture....
You and ysrcflyer are only about 14 miles apart. Maybe he can come over to your little field or you can meet somewhere else. Wouldn't have to wait til June would you if you made arrangement with an individual. Pardon me for buttin' in, just throwing out ideas. Does ysrcflyer have access to a buddy box that you guys could use for a couple of weeks?

I would be happy to entertain the idea of somebody coming here and to give me some help.
Also be happy to fire up the grill and have some cold ones on hand to show my appreciation!
What do ya say ysrcflyer, up to you.
As far as the small field I am considering taking down a few pines on the approaches. Try to give myself a few more feet of approach.
