Cranking them out Lyle! Cool little bird and nice job on the louvers. I had the go back and check if they were molded open.

Thanks, John. Neat little kit. It was mostly together for a while. The lovers were highlighted with Tamiya black Panel wash.

Hey, watch it there, Bub!!! I thought this was supposed to be a family-friendly forum.

That's sure a great example of how nice a simple little kit can look. Nicely done, Lyle. And record time. Oh wait, you built it, not me.....

Oopsie! Uh that doggone autocorrects got me. Make that “louvres”.

That’s my story and I’m gonna stick with it.

That did turn out pretty dang good Lyle. Never heard of this plane or kit before.

Thanks, Joe. She has a slightly older sibling "MIKE" that is essentially the same aircraft but with a smaller engine.

Thanks, Mike. You should grab a couple of these. They are simple and usually quick to build.
