Title: My Nephew T.J Weedmans Straga
Post by: Lynn Weedman on August 27, 2011, 06:59:47 PM
Another family project.
Iv'e been helping T.J with the finishing process,passing the tortch if you want to call it that.
My brother Tom Weedman and my dad Jack Weedman also helped him with the construction portion of the project.
He seems to be learning to be a real build and fly hobbiest. I do know that he has certainly learned what sanding is all about now. I think this is the biggest airplane that he has done the hole sanding process on. Anyway I just wanted to share some pictures of his Straga with everyone on the hanger.
