| I bought one just like it about 90 days ago. She's a PEACH! |

Parts now cut and bagged, nose pieces glued together, and fuselage crutches are spliced to proper length. This one builds from the bottom up. All long woods are ID'd and marked. Time to smell some more glue. |

Had to take a time out from build. My 20+ yr. Dremel gave out, had to purchase another scroll saw. Mr. Artha won't allow me to cut printed parts by hand, especially on 1/8" balsa. |

| The HobbyTown I mentioned is off Hebron Parkway in Plano. At a rating it is about 85 to 90 pc in comparison to the one on Walnut Hill Lane. Never been to Wild Bills.
We are back in the States for a couple of months, we are back in London on 1st of June. In London I'm about 75% done with a Caldercraft HMS Snake, an 18 gun 3 masted sloop cir. 1790. Here in the States I'm trying to convert a Guillows 500 series Fw 190 to an Fw 190F-8 with a blown hood. I'll start posting some photos shortly. |

| Jerry, is Hobby Town on Walnut Hill Ln? It's one of my favorites. Have you been to Wild Bill's in Irving? Another great shop. Glad to have you back in U.S. Here a while? |

| I'll be landing there in about 3 hours enroute to San Fran; thanks for the picture! On-board WiFi is cool! |

| Hi Poppy
The wife and I just flew back from London on Weds. We left our heavy winter coats in London (where we had a terrible winter)knowing that we would probably have at least 60degree weather in Dallas. We drove over to Hobby Town and went through 6 inches of snow in Plano. |

Springtime in DFW. 70 one day, 31 and 2" of snow the next! Luv this Texas weather. |

| This one is way above my skill level, which is why you got it. I have absolutely no doubt you will bring it to your usual excellence and it will be a joy to see because it's much different than a Guillows version. |

| My next project. Kit graciously supplied by David Duckett. DD, after having this in my inventory for almost 3 yrs. you probably were beginning to wonder if I would ever build it. After having seen your beautiful model as well as others, I can only hope to get one as good. I will give it my best shot. |

| Oh, my! |
