Profile AirTractor (kit bashed Fun51)
Tripp540 just finished his profile AirTractor tonight. It started off as a Tower Fun 51; he just re-shaped the fuse a little using some of the existing die cut parts, and redesigned the horizontal stab/elevator to look like the real one. The covering scheme really helped pull it off. Another club member saw it and ordered a 51 right away to do the same with! First flight is this weekend.........
Nice job Trip!!!

Hey leave him alone. A person needs all those planes. And don't even act like you have room to talk! 
I think he needs to add a burrito to the collection though!
And I need to add one of them Katana's to mine! Please!!!!!

I'll be adding a burrito and another sledge to the lot over the next few weeks. Burrito should be here on moday 12/15 and sledge is sitting in-the-bones waiting on covering, engine and radio. Will not be able to start until next weekend.
Looks like it will still be a little while on the katana's.[:@] I just didn't feel like waiting for the kit and decided to get a burrito.
