Hi Allen,

Morn. Mark!
I have been keeping close tabs, tibbles n' bits...on Bob Hunt's amazingly beautiful Twin article that he has shared with us on almost a daily basis.
It still boggles my britches...just how much talent-n-testinal' passion folks like you, Bob, and others are blessed (or have been cursed with) that would even begin to tackle projects like these? H^^ H^^ BW@

Post by: john e. holliday on January 03, 2011, 06:10:05 PM: Well last Thursday and Friday it was warm but the trees were bending over quite a bit. Saturday temps in the teens and calm. Sunday more of the same. Nice today and calm but had crossing duty. Need to get the old Ford going again so I can keep my planes ready. Also the weather controllers are just getting us cold up or is it warmed up for the sub zero temps that are coming. Now every time I sign in on the computor I want a twin engine red airplane that will do the pattern. I do remember seeing the one that was at the Worlds. H^^

Doc, all you'uns has gotta do is build a twin that will do the pattern! There are plenty as we'uns know........ even a FEW kits!

Gilbert's was really neat. TWO Saito .40s!

Post by: John Witt on January 03, 2011, 10:22:40 PM: Did you note the left and right hand props? Marvelous airplane.

Maybe there should be extra appearance points for scale birds, scale within some parameters. Of course, look at the "scale" planes being flown in carrier. or even some of the "scale" planes being flown in scale. n~ Maybe we shouldn't go there.

Why I have heard of rumors of a deranged super builder who has the intentions of having just such a beast! You shouldn't have to Hunt too far for the answer.......... :## n~

Only "one Bob's worth" would suffice. ;D

To add to the madness, rumors say retracts will also be used........ when will this monstrosity, if it even exist (shudder the thought) be unveiled in its entirety?
