Here is my entry into the drawing...A Sterling Super Ringmaster, S-6, built from an actual kit. It is on the front line for resuming the build, since the weather hasn't turned to Spring, yet.
It is now finally covered with SIG Koverall, and will be powered by a FOX .35, 50th Anniversary Edition engine. I have not decided whether to build the fuel tank shown on the plans, or fit a Perfect brand tank in the hatch area. Any suggestions? I intend to have it completed by mid-May, and flying when the weather becomes fair. I'm kind of ashamed that I have constructed it so heavy, but I understand that this is a GREAT airplane, and might forgive my wayward building style. Comments welcome.

I will build it. It's gonna be really difficult to find me with an ARF. I know every bit of my airplane!

Fuselage completely replaced on my Ringmaster rebuild. Photo shows set-up to align and measure stabilizer perpendicular in 2 geometric planes. Current project.

Posting to keep thread at the top. My project is sitting for almost a year without work. Picture tomorrow.

Can't get my picture small enough. Really wanted to show that flap arrangement that I caught flack on last year.
Torque bar arrangement works.

Congrats to the winner.
