| yeah - I know..it can all get wrapped around the axle of that friggin' paint scheme - but I do appreciate the appraisals..so far.
I have begun to pencil the patterns onto the airplane. Next I will use a french curve to cut the strips of masking tape to mask the pinstripes. Then she gets the overall red paint. After that I can mask out and paint the black accents. This should create the correct effect overall. |

| it's a really near air frame. I wonder what it would be like to build a full size one using composite materials and current, state of the art bracing. It would be so light and strong - and fast. I wouldn't change the motor though. |

| Well I hope that note didn't offend anyone - that item was written in the San Diego Union paper in the early 80's and there was a crew of us that would have our coffee and read these letters from the paper for entertainment before beginning the work day and on this particular day there was some coffee spray to wipe off the tables and cabinets once we realized the phonetics of the alias used - the letter itself was a scathing and hilarious ripping of the ball club as well...unforgettable. |

| ...interesting little by-the-by Kevin - "natty" sense of humour there too! :-) |

| No worries - my name is Kevin. I use the heywooood moniker for social media environments. It was an old joke from a 'letter's to the editor' in the local paper. Someone wrote a letter to the sports editor here in San Diego years ago that was critical of the 'Padres' and at the end they signed it 'Heywood Jablowme'...quite rude but it got printed anyway lol and sadly the 'Padres' are still as pathetic as ever. |
