| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Flying | 28-Jun-09 02:08 |  | | Views : 936 | | Flying with Swallows at my Dad's place in Solvang CA. There was about fifty of them. Maybe they thought I found them dinner! |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 28-Jun-09 01:55 |  | | Views : 830 | | Added both fresh air intake and rear facing "exhaust" vents. Was getting a bit warm inside. Both of these are to replaced with internal ducting. These kinda ruin the clean lines of the plane. They just looked so small when I was making them. |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 28-Jun-09 01:45 |  | | Views : 850 | | Adding 1/8" to the perimeter of the vertical stabilizer added about 3/4 sq" area. This solved the "Wandering Tail" issue. Also reduced wing incedence a smidge. |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Parked | 21-Jun-09 19:23 |  | | Views : 897 | | Well, that's it I suppose. Just n less downthrust and more verttical stab area, both easy fixes. Overall I'm quite pleased with the performance and the "Nostalgic" look. Back to the EIII for now. |

| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 21-Jun-09 00:37 |  | | Views : 712 | | ....this seems kinda light. If it's close, I'm stoked! |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Reference | 21-Jun-09 00:35 |  | | Views : 673 | | Can anyone out there with a digi scale give a reading on ten pennies so I can check and see if my scale is at all accurate (cheap import so I don't know how accurate it is) because.... |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Reference | 20-Jun-09 13:16 |  | | Views : 713 | | Subliminal inspiration for the wing planform of the "Holiday"? Just noticed the similarity looking through my bird pics! jdaawa, they also had a type of pheasant(?) called a Jackson. Who needs a rooster when you've got Jacksons. |
