As I turned around, sure nuff, only thing missing was the vertical stabilizer. He had used 1x1.5 furring strips. Had a long one for the body. Second long one for the main wing about an inch or two behind the end of the board. Finally the horizontal stabilizer at the other end. He had used his little plastic hammer to bang in some ring nails. I could not believe it. Here he is not even an EAA member and has beaten me to the home built. Maybe I should get him a membership. The real question is, what kind of power is he planning on installing? If it's auto, pedals, or rubber band don't let BOb know. Your son is at such an impressionable age, he might never want to *drive* behind a car motor after a trip to the barnyard... Mark Hickey ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Heh, heh. Thank you for the characterization, Mark. Better to be thought of in this 'kindly' light.. than not at all. Moocho grassy-arse. g BTW -- When Fred's youthful lad is fully grown.... expect piston type auto conversions to be held in contempt as "dinosaurs", much like the RAH loons view the venerable Lycoming today. Barnyard BOb -- why is youth wasted on the young |
