Last summer I had a 16 year old Goldberg Eagle with a OS40. If I hadn't striped the covering, my plane would most likely would of crashed later this year. It had Balsa Rot due to the prevous owner didn't store it in a heated environment. Plus Glow Fuel worked its way in through the patches through the years. So I took the whole plane apart, and I'm going to use what ever is good for repairs on other planes. May you Rest in Peace my friend.

Hello all!
My trainer is a year old by now. He (the trainer) died and rose from the dead 2 times! One may not understand Russian but everybody understand photos. [link]Look here: http://www.rcdesign.ru/reviews/avia/...sy_trainer_40t[/link]

Thats incredible!!! That is 10,400 flights at probably 15 minutes each is 156,000 minutes equaling 2,600 hours, WOW. That is a lot of hours even on a real airplane. They don't usually fly as often by privite owners. I had my Piper Cherokee PA28-140 for 10 years and only put 500 hours on it.
