Re: Your latest creation
Wow, I’d expect such a low blow from someone like Schmidty, but Hank? I am so disappointed.
Kurt, I appreciate your support against such wild and unfounded assertions. Like there is visual evidence I would make such a mistake as to put the screws in the wrong side...

I discovered in between practice flights that one of my AJ bolts had come out in my GR-7. Lucky! It lived to fly another day!

Re: Your latest creation
Nother damn EF1 ... had a sticky wheel so I did a few Bob Hoover passes with it. That's one nice thing about electrics, they all come with a real nice throttle.
Tied for 1st going into Round 1

Sweet looking plane! Which model is that one?
Re: Your latest creation
That's the #2 prototype short-wing version of my Loki ... a long-delayed stablemate for the #1 prototype near the end of this build thread:

If I can avoid rolling it into a ball before the Nats, I'll finally show up with a matched set of airplanes like alla you real racers do.

Old blue lives on. The wing was getting beat up plus had a rough landing. Replaced wing with a spare and replaced the horizontal stab with a left over one from other crash damage.

So bullet #2 is finished and it's even a couple weeks before I needed it.

Re: Your latest creation
This one's been done for a while and seen at a couple races, though I haven't raced it yet, just getting the engine broken in. It's an APP Sweet 1. This time I thought I'd try the single-stage (hardener in the paint, no clear coat needed). This requires wet-sanding with up to 3000-grit sandpaper to knock down the paint edges and buffing to make it shiny again. Hmm, about the same amount of work as a single-stage job that requires clear, but possibly lighter. The finish isn't quite as shiny as a clear coat (I don't buff the clear when I use it), but still just as good in my opinion.

Re: Your latest creation
Damn! I was thinking of doing a plane in flat clear. Beat me to it. Looks fantastic Kurt!
....Love the time period correct-looking markings too!

Re: Your latest creation
For Denver. Hoping for clear flying lanes as my plane builder is getting a bit tired of building new Q40 ships when two of us try to occupy the same point in three dimensional space...
