Default Beefy BARF-ito > Firebird Killa!!

After having put quite a few flights on my BARF diamond back with a TITAN and she's had her share of scratches I decided to get a new one!

This time, I'm doubling every former and getting her ready to show up some flashes and some firebirds!!!

Maybe I should have Dougy, Joe McBrizzle and Jason Somes start calling my BARF "THE BUS DRIVER"!! Why? 'Cause its gonna take them to school!!

All hail the Bandito!!!

Here are some more pics.

The new Bandito with neon Yellow on the bottom. I have a feeling this one's gonna skoot, so I gotta be able to see it!

The spar reinforcements installed in the wings.

The spar templates for two of the three formers in the fuse. I'm buying some CF from Tam to make these.

And its my 2000th post, woo hoo!!
