Brian,
I couldn't have said it better myself..(grunt..ugh) |
A week on the jig?................I remember about a month of just fussing with my jig to be sure that it was flat ect ect.. I am amazed at those pics.. I remember back when you had to hand craft your RV....:) I knew these were coming out but I could not wait this long to get my fuse going and besides its all done now anyway, chalk it up to experience.
Have fun guys |
[quote=Brian Denk]That's just not fair. :rolleyes:
I remember spending an entire weekend not touching a single part of the airplane while my dad and I built the fuse jig. "Tell me again what we're building...a plane or a boat?", dad said. Oh and then there was the endless angst of getting the gear boxes installed straight...bending longerons, dropping plumb bobs... with it never looking right and pacing the floor wondering if my fuse would fly like a corkscrew through the air. [quote] I too was unfortunate enough to get one of the last NON-matched kits. When I placed my order I hadn't even heard of the Vans Osh announcment rumor otherwise I would have waited to place my order. I spent the whole week between Chritmas and New Years building the jig and mntg. all the bulkheads also wondering if I will be flying the perpetual corkscrew. I had a feeling of relief last Friday watching Dogfights when a guy mentioned how poorly the migs were made, no flush rivets, big gaps in the skins and these were mach 1ish jets. :eek: |
