[Mike S]

Nice one Mark! I've got to be honest it one of my favourites as well.

[Guest]

Looks very very nice!
You and Rich should have a I.M.A.C.-Off together in the air!
Now that would be awesome!
Hope you have fun and many good flights with her!

[Andy Sayle]

I love the way you describe your planes as "weapons". It's almost as if everyone should be aware that there is always a distinct possibility of something going drasically wrong, and that we should all face impending doom!

Looks good though, although I would be seriously tempted to deface the Honda scheme slightly. Like change the word "Power" for "Mower" or something stupid like that....

Clolur scheme looks good as it is and should show up well in the air.

[Guest]

Mark, has it arrived yet??

[Andy Sayle]

And, perhaps more importantly, have you crashed it yet?!

Andy

[Guest]

I think thats very unfair.Mark flew my Vapor last night with no problems.

[Mark Barnes]

Thanks John nice to know ive got some freinds here lol,

Mats not yet its made it as far as Shurbury i just need to get it from there (hopfully this weekend)

M

[Mark Barnes]

BB

[Mark Barnes]

Kerin very kindly brought my SU-26 along last night for me so it was shoehorned into my dads car,

Quick inspection last night and all looks very well, loverly covering, cowel is sprayed imacutalte nice wing bags to, DLE55 looks great and the can and header look upto the job,

So one day in work then crack on with the build

[Andy Sayle]

I know it might be a bit harsh, but guys, I'm opening a Book on how long this model lasts before it is either sold, or crashed. 50p to enter, winner takes half, the rest go to fund Barnseys foam and UHU Por addiction....

Andy

Oh, and you will be required to pick a week/year. I'll start the ball rolling with the second week in August.

[Mark Barnes]

Gosh! you think it will last that long

[Brian Colclough]

The inside information we need is the date of the maiden, then it's off to the bookies

[Mark Barnes]

this one will be a keeper set up for IMAC so no3dcockmungery with it (thats the plan anyway which may last 3 minuets)

[Andy Sayle]

I've just learnt a new word there Barnes, and I like it a lot! In fact, I can just see it working as model name. The "3dcockmunger" or the "Cockmunger3d"

It works! heh heh

Andy

[Brian Colclough]

I think they call Cockmungers "barrow boys" in London, oh no that's Costermungers

[Mark Barnes]

Right assembley has begun, This kit being the latest gen quick build i dont see any real problems and i was off to a good start.

Engine has been on now off again as i need about 1/2" longer standoffs making up. Can and header will be sweet with alittle tinker so over all im happy.

Need to get it on its legs next so i can begin gerrin it done!

[Mark Barnes]

Also im open to ideas on the logos im thinking layed up the same as the Honda scheme but somthing more comical
