Well boys it is done except for some minor things, finish of the tank installation and set up the radio. This will most likely be the last instalment on this plane. Hopefully i did a decent job of explaining the build process and thanks for all the support and comments.
My next plane 2 planes that I thinking of building is the same plane but set for an EF1 setup and or a 122 inch wing span plane for a Kolm 150 3-cylinder?

Great to hear. This plane when it had the DLE55 on it weighed 17 lbs even without fuel

Hi Guy's. I am working (in my head) on how to get me a shop set up again. I need to get rid of a couple big planes, just too many of the big birds setting around. Anyone know of a good site to list a couple for sale on? Namely the Red Eagle (a Pitts) and a Aeroworks Ultimate.

F G or R C G Classifieds and FB Marketplace seem to be the most popular.
Great looking planes btw. Mikey like.

I’ve bought and sold on all of the RC sites but don’t do it enough to say one is better than the other. FG, RCG, RCU, RCSB. Found my last kit on eBay and see a lot of activity on FB marketplace.
That Pitts is a special model though, and should live in a special place like the Pitts Flying Museum, or at Triple Tree Aerodrome. Dial them up and ask if they’re interested, especially since this is an exact replica of Jacqueline’s airplane. If you need a contact or an intro, please let me know. I’d be happy to assist.

Thanks, it's kind of special to me, especially after meeting her and seeing her reactions to it. I spent yesterday looking over both of those two planes to make sure everything is still ok, you know, to put them up for sale, and I just can't do it! And I had thought about donating it to TT.
