Default Rough count..

Just did a rough count going thru the posts here. The tail kit is paid for and serious deposit has been made on the wings. Not bad for a couple days work.

Next time you see CaptainRon ask him about his bird hunting expedition on the way home from LOE two years ago!

On a RV3... for the price difference, I would hope Doug goes QB. From talking with Scott the RV3 QB wings are SWEET!

Default SB OR FB wings?

TODR,

Doug needs QB wings if he builds a 3. That is the way to go. I will help to pay for them and help to build what ever he desides to do!! I am in on this.

BUT! Come look at my "fleet" an see what a SECOND?, back up,,,,?,,, airplane ought to look like..it's.not a plane that does the same mission as the first??
