    I appreciate your awesome appreciation. Now if I can just get you coaxed in to coming out and flying with me. Lol. Truly great friends are rare to find. Even rarer still, truly great friendships that last years.

Easy on the other hand is another story to be told. Give me a gorgeous red head (insert alternative tres jugged Kolm...

    Getting a little flying in is no excuse for not completing your work at home. :msn_slap: However, I do understand completely. I would love to be able to get a few flights in right now. I am having withdrawals. LOL. Really great work Doug. I am enjoying your build. Keep up the good work.

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Thanks for the compliments gents. Just trying to do a really good job building this Mustang. So, the firewall is Birch. Though it is only 1/4" thick, I really feel it will be strong enough once the final supports are in. Kolm offers an engine install kit for the Carf Mustang and Spit. Their...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    A new barrage of photos fellas. I just can't seem to leave well enough alone. I had so much to do Saturday and along with that, I wanted to make a little headway with the Velox and the Mighty Stang. Here lately it seems I do four things on a regular basis. Work, feed the Rat Dog, grab an hour or...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Oh I "DO" like that. This just may be the complete key I have been looking for. It looks easy enough, it is quick...which means I won't have to wait until my hair falls out from old age....(oh wait, I have no hair...LMAO) and it looks as though it won't add too much weight. Thank you so much...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    So, tonight I did the final gluing of the motor spine and added some support to the wing base spine. The Mustang builds very light and very strong....for the size engine recommended. For the beast Kolm, not so much in my opinion. I added 1/4" tri-stock to the back sides of the fuse formers that...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    And speaking of building, I have been waiting on glues to cure on the Velox so I have spent the last couple of evenings working on the Mustang. I have done a lot of measuring and test fitting and basically one step at a time. I am going rather slowly with this. Checking myself, then rechecking...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    It is uncertain as of yet whether I will build it, test fly it then finish it. Or finish it then maiden it. I have seen people do it both ways. My normal practice is no plane goes in the air until it is 100% as it can be at time of maiden. Certainly not everything always goes according to plan...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    It all looks real nice. I wonder, would you share your complete process? Any chance you weighed everything before you started glassing?
