Ty  Myself and I am sure many others have wondered how that plane would fly with it's big fat reflex airfoil Are you going to bring them to Huntersville? One plane I have always wondered about is the Bluebird with it's 25% airfoil.

Really neat Ty. I have the Air Trails that has the plan for that machine. I have drooled over it for years. Let us know how it fly's.

HI Ed,

I have a Mackey Bluebird that has been primed and sanded out for about two years, now.  It only needs paint!  it's swet up for as '57 Fox 25.  I *should* finish it and fly it, I guess.

Bill,

Yea, I have a new PA plane sitting in the rack all finished and ready for covering. I look at it every day while I sand away on the Cobra. It's killing me.

Whoa Bill & Randy, Careful!!!  :X I find that those are hangar rash magnets when you leave them like that for any length of time!  ~^ A couple of coats of nitrate usually helps me sleep better,   Z@@ZZZ and isn't bad for hardening up that soft contest balsa either while awaits it's paint duds.  8)

Eric,

I don't know about Bill, but mine is sitting in the rack about 15 feet in the air. And it has one coat of unthinned dope on it.  :)
