    Post'em....Old planes you miss having

    I built planes for people for years, so we could make that happen if you want.;) When you look on his site the photo he uses is my old beater UFO. It was a glass Great Planes kit I bought built. It was a pretty bad job, but flew great. I had it for probably 15 years and sold it in 2013.

    To show you just how sick an individual I was in those days I have a field box painted to match the Cosmic Wind that photo. Here is the removable battery portion next to my old UFO

    Hard to say then. I don't use the email alerts, I just use the watched threads button.

    It's a sickness. There is a twelve step program to cure it. One of the steps is to send them all to me.:D

    The Forgotten Extra, The Extra 230

    That was my buddy Tony's, and I remember it well. It was like a new born deer on it's unsteady legs.;) It was still in his workshop a few months ago when I was there.

    That box of sticks is really starting to look like an airplane!

    Ouch! But that's how my scratch build started, with a set of wings and tail surfaces from a Yak I killed.;)

    The Forgotten Extra, The Extra 230

    I have the 30% Ace kit at home, as well as the original Sachs 3.2 that was in my friends. It's kind of a "one of these days" project, but I think I'd put one of my DA50's in it instead of the Sachs. With a fuselage redesign to lighten it up MANY pounds it would be a cool airplane.;)

    Is it just me, or has the button for uploading photos gone blank? There is just a blank spot between "Post Reply" and "More Options" It still works if you click in the blank spot so it's no big deal for me, but someone new might get lost.

    Sometimes homemade tools are the best. Even though I'm swimming in different types of squeegees, my favorite tool for spreading epoxy resin is a piece of 1/32" ply that's been coated with resin and sanded smooth. You just never know what's going to work for you.:)

    Even though I do still have this Curare, I retired it years ago so I do miss flying it. I didn't build this one, but I've owned it for about 30 years. I started to sand and repaint it a long time ago, but never did.

    This is one I wish I would have never sold. It was in my glow days, but it is still my favorite airplane.
