Time to let her go, been hanging on my wall and has not flown since its last race. Has minimal rash on the very rear tip of the fuse and the TE of each wingtip (can send photos if interested, but is minimal), otherwise, it just needs a good waxing and it could be back in the air.

2009 AMA 428 National Champion Plane, see Nats News link below:

Fred Burgdorf and I had perfect scores and as we were fueling up for the flyoff and the win he looked at me and said "don't fuck up"...There was a video of the flyoff win against Fred, but sadly can not locate it.
Plane is bare, no servos, receiver, motor, tank, etc.. Was set up for Futaba 9650's I believe.. Lee LaValley use to talk about fondling it when he stayed over in my guest room, so I can't gaurantee there isn't any of his DNA included with the sale.
I do not want to ship the plane, Pickup in the Twin Cities area, $500. I'm in no hurry to sell it, so if you know your going to be in the area this summer, just let me know and we can work something out. Anyone local is welcome to pick up in Wyoming, MN anytime...

NATS news says 1.09 do you have a faster one? Just kidding. Beautiful plane, if I was closer I’d own it.
And I said, here am I send me.

I never put up fast times, lol.. Fast time of that contest was a 1:08 something, so in the mix. This was on the long course.

If you did get up here Rocket, we could do some fishing, just picked up my new boat (It wasn't available in Green and black, but that would have looked hot) ..

Sweet ride.. never been walleye fishing. Gave my boat to my daughter. Maybe one day I’ll go fishing again. Last time I went out with my son in law I spent 4 days in bed. The back wasn’t ready for the waves.

Walleyes are fun when you catch them, not always easy.. We do a lot of Crappie fishing,we love fishing in the ocean when the weather is nice, but those waves can do a number on your back.. Nice boat.
