Continuing building thread for The AIRBENDER (New Photos)

[Mike Griffin]

Here is a first look at the AIRBENDER.  Working with Allen Brickhaus last year and Eric Rule of RSM, this is the final result of my new model.  This model will be put into production and kitted for late summer/early fall.

This build is being done by a good friend, Larry Richards. Larry is excellent at ferreting out and design flaws.  So far his reports back to me have been all positive.

As the build progresses, I will continue to post pictures.

The Jaguar will be released first (I am still adding to the waiting list on it) and the AIRBENDER will follow.

Thanks

I do like the profile of the new model.  Looks like nice workable moments and airfoils also.  Should be a good one for the Intermediate to the Expert flyer.

I love construction photos. No sideview ?

lookin good! man that peg board wall is sweet! rd

[Mike Griffin]

That pegboard is in Larry Richards shop.  He is building the first model.  I am envious of it too.  We will have more construction photos as Larry progresses with the build.

The shots of the plane look great, but that shop is way too clean and neat. I suppose he doesn't have to look for any thing as he probably has it all labeled.

My workbench does'nt get cleaned until my project is finished. I just pile all the stuff in front of me this way I don't have to go look'in for it, I know it's in the pile,------ sometimes.---LOUIE
