PRO-BUILDERS
 

Would any one know of any professional builders in the State of Georgia who just builds planes for a living, or are retired with time on there hands to build? I'm looking for a possible builder this year on a Top Flite Giant Scale P-51D. Full detail, "operational gear doors through-out" (Mains & Tail). NO monokote plastic "apply heat gun" every day finish , but a cloth and glass finish that is spray painted on giving a nice "metal" finish. Panel lines, rivets...etc.

I would pretty much supply the kit, servos, engine, retracts and whatever else is needed. I need to do an itemization break-down in the future...This is the preliminary search.

I've attached some pictures of the exact scheme I would like..."The Blue Nose Basta#ds" Mustang Aces of the 352nd Fighter Group. (Had to add the # to replace the R, system wont let word go through). The first piture is Top Flites Scheme...I like that blue tail too. Thanks in advance. I'll discuss the details once a prospect contacts me. [sm=thumbup.gif]

Start cashing in your 401 and cd's. I don't have the nerves to fly a $4,000 to 5,000.00 scale plane. At a minimum 15/hr billing rate and about 400+ hrs. to work in the details you want, farming out the work won't come cheap. My billing rate was 35/hr before I semi-retired; so your project could match the national debt. Oh forgot to add in your supplied parts (kit,engine and that electric stuff)

Flyboy,

Not in GA, and not retired, but would be interested in quoting if you would like. Send a PM if interested.

You may want to contact a Chuck Facemeier in Huntsville, Alabama (he's the 'boss' at RCRC - Rocket City Radio Controllers') - they have a web page -check Tower's list of clubs.
