| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 03-Jul-07 18:07 |  | | Views : 784 | | The cockpit still needs a seat, a GPS, and an "I" phone! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 03-Jul-07 18:04 |  | | Views : 780 | | Aileron pedlas, joy stick, and an abundance of instrument and switch, "Jimmies and Jammies!" |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 03-Jul-07 18:01 |  | | Views : 732 | | Nicholai Borisovich (Nicholas the son of Boris), admires the instrumentation technology of a WWII Mig-3. He remembers the stories his father told him about his asventures flying a Sopwith Camel. Avation tecnology has come a long way in 25 years! |

| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 30-Jun-07 20:54 |  | | Views : 733 | | Gentlemen remember me? We are 40 hours into the scratch built Mig-3. My Boss says that now the "fun work" of detailing the fuselage will begin. This is a modified Mig published by E Sthal in 1943. Larger scale, bass, not balsa. |

| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 19-Jun-07 19:28 |  | | Views : 708 | | Don't think I will add extra wood as we plan on covering it with aluminum (front) and wood (rear), just like the original. Now I can construct and detail the cockpit while the "Boys" build the tail and wings! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 19-Jun-07 19:25 |  | | Views : 709 | | Boris and Yegor remove the clamps. Building two sides at once worked. I reved the plans thru the computer. When the boys matched the side they fit almost "purrfect"! This bird is 1/13 scale, inches that is. Wingspan should be a tad over 28". |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 19-Jun-07 19:22 |  | | Views : 792 | | Yegor has been "stuck a bit!" Fortunately part of his digital computer system was not harmed! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 17-Jun-07 15:56 |  | | Views : 803 | | Boris built the port sode Yegor the starboard. Yegor's math skills have come a long way in a short period of time. "Lettuce" hope the halfs eventually match! I have seen some nice work here in the past few weeks.

| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 17-Jun-07 15:52 |  | | Views : 755 | | Gentlemen we are back! The dynamic duet of Boris and Yegor pushed a bit to finally finish the fuselage formers. Maybe for Father's Day they will install the side keels and start the stingers. |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 06-Jun-07 19:34 |  | | Views : 809 | | Boris, top, builds the left side. Yegor, bottom, builds the right. I never realized how satisfying and fun cutting all of the parts by hand can be....WONDERFUL!!! Such therapy! |
