Super chipmunk
« on: February 28, 2010, 01:00:23 PM »

      I guess everybody likes the Chipmunk. From Puerto Rico my friend Germanico Becerril is doing trim flights on his Super Chipmunk. He might take it to the nats this year. The plane was designed by Sammy Crespo and has a 62 inch wingspan  745 sq in. Powered by a Randy Smith PA .75 with tuned pipe. The plane weights 67 oz and is finished in polyurethane with graphics by Rafael U Irizarry. Bolly 13.65 X 4.5 launching at 9,000 RPM. He has been helpful with my Arf Nobler a real nice guy.

Alex. that model looks great. Alex you are looking very slim.How close is this one to the 2002 Chipmunk that you flew with the PA61. hope you are still visiting DR.

Hey Juan; yes, the Chipmonk has always been one of my favorite looking planes! I'm getting close with my first, a Sig Super Chipmonk kit. I'm going to use red, white and blue, but it won't be anywhere as pretty as that one in the picture. It Looks Great!   y1

While flying the pattern, my incompetence always exceeds my expectations.

  Hello Brian
                 I have seen yours in a previous post by you and It looks great. This guys have been flying for a long time and really know how to paint and use graphics. I think they got all decal pictures from the internet and then they used a printer and testors decal paper to do the graphics.Good luck with yours.
