Derek,
Looks great! We are looking forward to seeing the finished airplane, and a very high placing at the Worlds.

Fantastic! I like it when modelers add some character to the dummy in the glasshouse! He has that sitting on a pin expression though! LL~ Or is he just terrified of what you are going to do when you get that lovely model in the air?

Derek,

Is it going to be yanked about the sky by a .65 or a .75?
A .75 would make it laugh at turbulent conditions - -

 I went to see the contest site in Gyula and it is not a turbulent place. But thermals do change the wind direction sometimes.. L

It will start with a .65 but if I need it there is a .75 waiting for the chance to fly! ;D

Thanks Randy

They should have nice glass bottles over there for good clinking sounds in the bush!

Derek...Starke definately set a benchmark for my definition of wind but I'm glad to have flown anyway.Hopefully the wind gods can't find Hungry and you can tighten up the belts on the pilot and get ready to rumble!The build pictures are great!Keep um coming.   Jimmy

I am not sure they will be so tolerant of littering though!  ;D
