Here is my new plane for this season. It is powered by a PA65 utilizing a header muffler. Weight came in at 63oz. Tom Morris control system throughout. This was my first attempt with a foam wing, and with a Crist Rigotti core and the assistance of Roger Wildman, this may be the only way I build from here on out. Now I just have to wait on Mother Nature to try it out.

Hey...What's in a name anyway
by the way...GREAT LOOKING MODEL, MIKE!

Don, sorry about using your name. I wasn't aware that you had done one until it was too late. I did add C/L to try differentiate it a little. Maybe I will have to build one of yours to make it even.
Take care,
Mike

Mike...Hey good brotha in balsa. I stole the name from a very good carrier based AVENGER Navy Plane,huh...
Thinking back...
I can remember I thought about calling my airplane The UTOPIA but even waaaaaaay back then that name was taken by not one...but two or more other Stunt models? Plus when I think about it...IN TRUTH...
I DOUBT THAT ANY STUNT GRUNTER HAS EVER FOUND ANY STUNT MODEL THAT COULD HONESTLY BE CALLED "UTOPIA!?" y1 LL~

Mike; Looks great. Maybe you, Roger and I can get together soon and ring out our new birds. Call ya soon to talk more, or better yet, lets meet at Rogers when he gets back from out west.
Blessings

What's in a name, I don't think there are copy rights to them. Remember the Lark's. Mike your Avenger looks great. Is it your own design? Besides Don need excuses to show off the gorgeous lady holding the so-so airplane. If only I could build as well as he does. Later, DOC Holliday

DOC! U SPEAKUTH' THE TRUTH-UTH! But both you and Mike are both really well known artistical builders and finishers of the R&R circle-and have every right to name your models anything that punches your balsa-butchern-buttons! LL~ LL~ H^^clan.
