Thanks Pat
My MKIII classic was all white...and my painting skills have not
improved . I managed to get the left side of the Fuselage taped and
painted yesterday...Hope to have the right side done by evening...but
Golf is on the menu this morning...
Have my airstrip mowed and at the ready...but think I should find a
much longer runway for initial testing... :-) I have flown all my
builds from my shorter 700 foot strip...The 1300 strip is very bumpy...a
hay field esentially...
Dialed in the Warp drive prop to bring the rpm's up to 6k...gonna
leave it there for now..Sure wish I had a three blade IVO...much easier
to dial in...and certainly smoother..
I could likely go a zig zag with two or three rum and cokes! :-)
By the way...watched , as I may have said, the BBC story of the
Spitfire...Wondering if there is only one two seater left in England? Herb

Firestar...I have the wings and tail feathers and dibs on a
