    We've all had those days and they do suck. I hope you can get everything squared away and get out there soon.

    I ordered the Hostetler 35% Pitts plans last night and worked on the Samson plan. Once I have something worth posting I will. The Plan is going very slowly since It's been about a year since I've spent any serious time with Turbocad and I'm still finding my way around again.

    Until I have something worth posting I'm afraid you'll have to wait.:) Plus, I still want to get the Hostetler Pitts plan before I rule that out. But I am going to keep working on the Samson plan and post some progress here as I go.

    It is. I've always enjoyed making parts. Right now I'm trying to decide what the framing style will be before I can progress on the plan.

    I've decided to start drawing a Samson. I compared the PDF I have to a lot of pictures, and decided that was too short behind the canopy, the canopy was the wrong shape, and the horizontal stab was too short from front to back. I fixed all that in my drawing. What I'm looking at is a 78 1/2"...

    That's one of the things I like about the Samson, it looks like the love child of a Super Stearman and a Pitts. ;)

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

    This airplane uses two aileron servos in each wing, one elevator servo in each side and two rudder servos. The PowerBox has servo matching, so going into it for flight surface controls you only have right and left aileron, right and left elevator and rudder. The PowerBox splits each aileron and...

    I done with the upgrades on my buddies 3 meter Sukhoi, my airplanes don't need more than a few minutes maintenance, and it's supposed to rain tomorrow, humm, what am I going to do with myself?

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

    Before the Sukhoi left tonight, Tony and I put the cowl and the baffling back on and assembled it in my garage and tested everything again. It's ready to fly, but it's going to rain all day tomorrow. Hopefully it will fly next Sunday. He's saying I'm doing the test flight, I guess we'll see when...
