I have to agree, that is one beautiful plane!!! Give yourself a pat on the back. I've always liked the look of the STA. I just may have to build one of these.

Thank You everyone!! I put an OS 61 sf in it and am wondering how it will fly. The plans call for an Enya 60. The plane weighs 9 pounds even. Ill let you know how it flies. If anyone out there has run a two stroke in one of these Sig Ryan's. Let's hear from you.
Thanks, Barzini

Oh by the way, I made the wheel pants and fairings out of balsa. The plastic ones that came in the kit were a pain to assemble and i heard they were very fragile.

Hey, that is one great job! No one else knows what it takes to accomplish it, one has to build it. I didn't put the wheel strut covers on mine- the old plastic did not hold up- maybe I'll fabricate some from balsa like you did.. Yours look so good. I'm nervous flying mine, now. But the first flight was a THRILL. My O.S. 61 SF, w/12x5 prop, does a good job of powering the plane-it's not supposed to "hang".
good job - it was worth the effort!!!!!!!!!

BARZINI

The .60 should fly it just fine if the weight is within reason.

A friend of mine has the Sig Ryan with a .60 in it and it's a real
sweetheart.

Nice job, congratulations
