Hi All,

Took some pictures of the 1/2A Snapper as it sits today, also a Baby Ringmaster and the beginnings of a Walton Hughes Little Missle.

The 1/2A Snapper is from Ray's EXCELLENT hand cut kit.
Little Missle is Walton Hughes' magazine article
Baby RM is from Pat King's EXCELLENT laser cut kit

Very Nice, Bill, just about done huh.  Just rudder, canopy and finish.  Looks like a good job.

Bill, is there anything special about that the build in that Little Missle article? Aslo, are you going to extend the landing grar or install it for belly landings like the original?

My reason for asking is that I have a set of the plans from John Pond and a McCoy .09 waiting for it, but so far, never started it. I believe you can legally extend the gear for OTS. Always liked the lines on it.

Thanks, Ray.  About decided on red JAP tissue on the wings and a white fuselage.  It has the clear on it, she's ready to cover.

Hi George,

Really a pertty simple build.  I made a tank, and have the old McCoy .09 ready! LOL!!

I am going to have LG that will allow take offs. ;D  The OTS rules do allow extend (or adding!) the LG as long as it exits in the same place and has the same rake, etc..

It will be huge fun I believe.  It is really, really light. ;D

Nice job on the Snapper Bill. Your comment on Ray's kit cutting is right on the mark.
