Hey guys,
perhaps some of you will know me from the CARF GeeBee building thread.
My name is Hannes Lutzenberger, 37 years old and from Germany.

The latest project in our shop is a 50% R2 "Delmar Benjamin" replica!
We used a Hostetler plan, scaled it to 50%, did some modifications to the outline and changed the profile to the original M6:







If you guys are interrested, we will post some updates from time to time!
You also can follow the project on Facebook:

Best wishes all the way from Germany,
Hannes
