Update 2/29/04

Plane flew well, but with a light wingloading and 10-15 mph winds, I finally tucked it neatly up into the telephone wires. Title this episode - "Death Of A Testbed". The good news is we got some great in-flight movies of it before I pooched it. The bad news was I had to throw stuff at it until the airframe disentregated enough to fall down.

Finished rigging the controls and mounting the motor and radio. Ready to fly. Will add undercarriage once it's flight tested.

Update 2/15/04

A lot of people in the NH Flying Misfits are building easy cheapie foam planes out of foam board. Well, I'm on the bandwagon, but like always, I dare to be different. My foamie is a Fokker Dr-I. MUHAHahahaha!
