Yay!!! Sky Streak article delivered.
« on: August 25, 2011, 12:27:11 PM »
Yes friends, I really can finish a project.  Sometimes.   :-\

The Sky Streak is now in the hands of Flying Models magazine, and they are going to put it in the next issue they lay out!   #^  Watch for it. Two plan sheets, one for the airplane, the other for all the non-stick and sheet parts.

I am sending the files to Eric Rule, so he can cut short kits for them as wants em.  Gotten lazy, haven't we?   VD~ S?P LL~

Laser cutting may have made us a bit lazy, but it sure does speed up construction. H^^

Too many "Sky" models!  n~

Sky Fire will be in issue 4.  That is the sheet wing Kwikee stunter.  This is Sky Streak, a forward swept flying wing similar to the one in my "avatar".

Hmmmm, you could put a stab/elevator out front of it and have a swept canard...oh, that's my domain.

Sorry, Ray - don't need no stinkin' canard, it does a competitive pattern just fine as is!

Here is a photo of the current "Sky" models:  Sky Sport, Sky Fire and Sky Streak.

The only other ones I have kitted or publised are 'Dancer, 'Dart, 'Slash, 'Copter, 'Rider and 'Blaster.  Any way, those are all I remember at the moment.   LL~

Sorry, Larry.  So many models and at this time of the month we are backed and working overtime. I guess that I am a little groggy.

Flying Models is really rolling on this one.  A great spread, and into galley proofs already!  And, I have done the editing and captions for them this evening.  They have a deadline for the issue this Friday, so it will be coming out VERY soon!  I just hope I found all the corrections!  (Mostly mine needed, not theirs, BTW.  FM is a pleasure to work with. [OK, grammar freaks, "It is a pleasure to work with Flying Models"])  mw~ LL~ VD~
