Later, The...

RE: Academy of Model Aeronautics announces resignation of its executive director

I live near the AMA site, and visit regularly. I have had occasion to talk to several of the personnel from time to time, and have never had any of them utter a good word for Cherry. Frankly, I'm...

RE: Piper Tri-Pacer from Wendell Hostetler is now here!!

Glad to see this thread get some new life! The Tri Pacer has long been one of my favorite planes, and I started Wendell's 1/3 scale version three years ago. It is now framed up entirely, with the...

RE: Piper Tri-Pacer from Wendell Hostetler is now here!!

Steve, your wendell tri pacer looks good! Can you liven up this thread a little? Tell us how it balanced. Did you need to add weight, and if so, where? What engine did you use? If you have flown...

RE: IMAA President???

I went to the IMAA web site, but found nothing there! Is there some dark secret here? How about just stating what has happened?

RE: Piper Tri-Pacer from Wendell Hostetler is now here!!

I am using a YW48B2 twin. It is a very nice piece of craftsmanship! It should be plenty of power, and it runs great on the test stand. I have found it to be difficult to start by hand, however. I...

RE: Piper Tri-Pacer from Wendell Hostetler is now here!!

Getting a little bit of a start on my Tri Pacer. I decided to go with a framed up and sheeted empannage, rather than the 3/8" sheet than Wendell suggests. I can offer a little bit of a correction...

RE: Piper Tri-Pacer from Wendell Hostetler is now here!!

Well, my nose gear finally arrived today! Quite a nice piece of work. Expensive, but I don't have the machinery to duplicate it, so I just had to bite the bullet. Paid for it on April 1st,...

We had to send back the...
