Very professional looking plane, Bob. And I know it doesn't weigh 90oz because, based on your earlier comments, you'd probably turn it into firewood if it did. I'd at least fly it first before making it a hanger queen.   ;D

HI Dennis

That was my fault, I am the one that told him I use canopy glue for hinges..so ..my bad... 
I have used this type glue on all my ships since 1985,
Canopy glue is special made to glue plastics to wood, I have used canopy glue and my Vector, DREADNOUGHT,  EXEL, and KATANA, 1000s of flights, never has one got loose, never a failure,but for some reason, it didn't work as well for Sparky


Regards
Randy

I always use canopy glue or just plain Pica Gluit on my hinges.  Does this mean my planes are doomed?

Way back when Al Rabe offered to let me fly the Sea Fury - I chickened out.

Windy offered to let me fly the big Sweeper - I SHOULD have chickened out!

Windy offered to let me fly his ultra lite big red Mig - I chickened out.

Bob, this time I hope to take you up on your offer (thanks in advance!) - and to return the favor!

With a name like that, shouldn't it have a Saito 4 stroke in it?  S?P
