Don't get too carried away, Pericles. I'm hoping to get the Type 91 done tonight.

Hehehe! I start many builds in the smae time not worry my friend. I buy a new camera too, I believe the quality of pics is better...

I'm thinking about giving the Luftwaffe F-104 a try, since it looks like it needs a picture. I'll likely downscale it to 1:72.

Is there some more detail about the contest somewhere? Rules, deadlines, allowed modifications?

Started a build of the Rutan Voyager, going to build it stock, wheels up in flight maybe front engine shutdown prop feathered, it flew this way about half the flight to save fuel. Aaron gave me a good starting point, so here's hoping......Rich

Wow that's any easy build, thank you Aaron for a great model. I think it came out good, tried my hand at GIMP making a flying shot but I see I cut off the wing tip, (didn't that happen on takeoff on the record flight?). I'll take some better shots after I get some new batteries for the camera.....Rich

If I remember correctly, the wingtips dragged on takeoff, and the finlets were ground off.

What I don't understand is why they did not test fly it with tanks full of water (at all up weight) the only time it flew at that way was on the record flight and that was what made the wing tips drag the ground. If it had ground off a little more of the tip it would have got in to the tank and ended the flight.......Rich
