I finally finished something so am now looking forward to test flying . There is still more painting to do on the Arctic Fox. But will probably be ready to fly in early May. So far right on schedule.Then will be time to paint New Grinder. o2oP o2oP o2oP j1 j1 j1 CLP** CLP** CLP** HB~>

It's a sport plane and have not put numbers on it yet. Why? HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~>Thats ok,I have never seen you fly.

Leo,
Absolutely beautiful airplanes! H^^
When are you going to do the trim flights?
I'd sure like to watch, if I can get away from the family obligations like baby sitting.

Leo,
Hate to mention it but the AMA safety code requires a number or name so they know who to blame n1, even on a sport plane. I think only the indoor guys can get away with no id!

I have often wondered how many people we have out there in this great land of ours that fly control line maybe once or twice a year and don't know what AMA is. When I got started in this hobby/sport I didn't know about AMA until I entered my first contest in 1956 with a Guillows Rat Racer and Mccoy 35. Even reading about the Nationals there was little mentioned about AMA that I can remember. I just flew my Sweet Sweep in Topeka a couple of weeks ago without numbers on the wing or even the fuselage. I have also read where some of our better known pilots have test flown planes without any numbers/finish on them. So how does that little plane fly? DOC Holliday

It flys good but because it is small it is a little jumpy. I flew full pattern on second flight. I am not used to flying on shorter lines so thats a issue. Need to slow motor down a hair. and take some tail weight out. It's fun plane now that I am entering my sport flying days. You know about fun Doc. It is actually more fun because it is my own design. #^ #^ HB~>
