Post by: Randy Powell on March 26, 2008, 10:36:16 PM: 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

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!
