    Congrats Rob! Very glad to hear all went well. You did a beautiful job on the Pitts. There is nothing like the feeling that "I built that thing". In these days of Arfs, a lot of people never get to feel that since of pride. Hopefully this site with threads like this, will get a few more people...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    After talking to everyone that was at the field this morning I'm happy to say I can't see the new rules taking hold. It sounds like only a few people want the new rules so if they come to a vote, I doubt they'll pass.:)

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    This afternoon at work I had some time, so I made a weight for the nose. I had it on my buddies EZ Balancer last Saturday and stacked weight on the top of the cowl until it balanced. I weighed the stack of weight and built my new weight to match. I took a piece of square tubing and melted lead...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Thanks guys! I'm not normally too nervous about maidens, but this one will be scary. But, like I told my flying buddy, "it will either fly or or it won't".

    I've got some nose art for it, not an Indian Chief though since that would be politically incorrect. And I would never do something like that. :lol2:
