I understand that at one time, Ski and Windy had built the only 20 point Nats planes.

That is another outstanding design by another true artist.  May have to reconsider kits if you do this one.  Have fun,  DOC Holliday

This looks like a forerunner to the Lacemaker. Beautiful workmanship. Obvious former freeflighter.   ;D

Gene Martine had a 20 pointer at... 1981 TX NATs(?)

I love that fuselage - screaming out for electric power!

Ski built a wonderful purple translucent plane for Westover in 92 or 93....perfect wood fits and not a mark on the wood anywhere....
Windy thought that it should have received 20 points....
Ski has been flying a Nobler ARF/Fox 35...
