Thats Life

Hi folks,
A few lines to let you know that I am alive and well, The gremlins are still crowding around me just one thing after another,Working hard but not making much money, A cold/flu I can not seem to shake off, a router failure at home which while easy to fix took hours to sort out, my Wifes car, my pickup just a whole lot of little problems which have kept me out of the hobby shop, which means I have accomplished nothing on that front this year.
I was saddened to hear about Vern,s passing He was one of the nicest old gentlemen you could meet in this Hobby He gave me a lot of good advice and help never criticizing my mistakes but applauding every success He also found the time to answer my son Richard's endless questions. I guess what I am trying to say here is that he epitomized all the values of our club, The AMA, and our hobby in general. You will be missed Vern,Happy landings

Page Supercub is coming along.

I put all the parts together for the photo. It's BIG.
I have the tail group all sanded and hinges are dry fitted. Next need to make the struts and then form/sand the entire model for covering.

LT-25e Video

Take a look at this video I posted on my Blog. The video was taken by Matt and I put it together with some music. We were flying at the KVMA field on 2-9-08. Great day. Soft snow and just a tad of breeze.
