05/02/2008- Since coming
back from Toledo, I had ordered a 100 cc QQ Python. I just recently
received it, and since I figure I can get this done fairly quickly, I have
put aside the 260 for now. Here are some pics of the Python build.

Click here to see some pics.! 03/13/2008- In the last few weeks, I've been in my basement, fixing up some various projects that I had set aside for the winter. One of them being my Rafale. Last year I had a bit of a mishap with it, in that I broke off the nose wheel while trying to land on a rough grass field. Once that happened, it naturally caused other damage, and I had various cracks throughout the nose of the Rafale. I managed to temporarily fix it up, and was out flying the Rafale in no time, but it sure wasn't pretty looking. With that being said, I decided that since I had a little time, I would strip down the nose section, refill the cracks, and try to make it look pretty again.

In the last year I was married, had our office move, and moved into a new home. That being said, it has made it very difficult to update things on this site. Over the course of the summer, I did do quite a bit of flying, but more so on the IMAC contest circuit, and very little in between. I'm hoping now that things have settled down a bit, that I will have a little more time to keep this page more updated with new information. 10/20/2005- I got a little more work done on the wings last night.

10/08/2003-
After partially building the Top-Flite P-47, and further researching
my interests in building a scale P-47, I've decided to stop any further
construction. The reason is that after some careful thought, I decided
that I wanted to build a more scale version of the P-47. The Top-Flite kit
is a very nice looking model, and I'm sure would build into a great flyer,
but it lacks some of the fine detail I am looking for. Now I'm sure with a
little extra effort and some modifications, the scale detail I'm looking
for can be accomplished with this kit, but the time and effort required
would be a little more than I am willing to invest. So I've decided to
purchase a Yellow Aircraft P-47. The Yellow kit is a little more scale,
and already has some of the finer detail I am looking for, built right in.
My time is limited these days, and I would rather a project that didn't
require as much modifying to accomplish the detail I am seeking. 10/01/2003- New Itmes for sale in the swap shop Click here 09/22/2003- New Items for sale in the swap shop Click here 09/11/2003- New items for sale in the swap shop Click here 09/02/2003- Pics from the D.O.G.S Fly in Click here 08/26/2003- New items for sale in the swap shop Click here 08/20/2003- New airplanes for sale in the swap shop Click here 08/13/2003- New items in the swap shop Click here 08/11/2003- More updates and pics of the Extra Click here 08/07/2003- New items in the swap shop Click here 07/31/2003- Check out my new Taylorcraft.
