RE: Sickle (V-2)

Archie was nice enough to fly my Sickle and make recommendations on little things that need to...

RE: Lightning Build

Jeff,

How do I request a copy of your drawings and how much do you want for them?

FYI, I escaped the heat in Phx. when I joined the AF in 1974.

Regards,

RE: Sickle (V-2)

The maiden flight went well today, thanks to Steve Dente for the honors.

After all of the work done before me by all...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

It turns out the prop was a 22x10.

I'll pick up some 20x12 and 20x13 options tonight.

RE: Sickle (V-2)

I will be ready to maiden next Sunday.

I had a friend over to hold while I checked the motor run on the Scorpion.

Drawing 84 amps using an APC 20x10 at around 3200 watts, enough for the...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

About the canopy mounting system that comes with the kit that I could not figure out.

I cut out my own hold down hooks similar to a BVM product used on jets and that took care of the canopy hold...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

Bob,

I was going to square the pilot holes up at some point to get more air flow through the motor.

This is one of the few front mounts I have had the pleasure of setting up, and they are...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

I should be done with my motor mount tonight and can move on to more fun things.

Without trying to be redundant, I sure like this plane so far.

I should get a couple of pictures up this...

Thanks Mike. I have the landing gear mounted, I am so impressed they include gear with an "aero" shape, nice touch. I'm getting the motor mount setup now and the progress is good with the large...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

The BIG box arrived a few hours ago and I can tell you Fed-EX does not know how to read the word "Fra-gee-lay". The cardboard outer box must have been used as the center piece in a kick boxing...

RE: Sickle (V-2)

A small windfall and Chris' incentives made this happen before Christmas this year.

Thanks,

RE: GA GAU-8 Avenger in the A10 Warthog

Lets see, in 1977 I was stationed at Kadena AFB as a 461. Those were fun times. The A-10 is still my favorite and I'm still looking for a good kit.
