| We have all had dumbass moments...I frequently do...brain farts so to speak! I am confident the repairs will make the boo boos all better. |

| First day out of charm school...I was moving the MDF circle to set up a camera shot and got it too close to the edge of the table and as it tilted slightly, the nose heavy plane slid right off. It's not easy being a dumbass. |

| A very unfortunate mishap. What was the cause? Cat nap, earthquake, rattlesnake, or too much Mountain Dew! |

| Bummer would be quite the understatement. Sorry dude. |

It fell off the table breaking a prop blade off each side, tearing one main gear off, breaking the right elevator loose, and taking a chunk out of the wing tip. Final pics will be up after repairs are completed. #$%$#*^&%%$# |

I need to find some plastic in the house to make and install the rear canopy before adding the props. |

Canopy attached |

Later models will have custom scale main gear from the Finn Factory. I glued a small piece of plastic to the main strut to be the base to rest the brace on. The brace is made from 1/16" balsa. The gear doors are made from 3/32" balsa. There's still a couple of more things which go on the main gear. |

| Looking so good, that gear is fantastic. Can't wait to see the doors. |
