| Very nice detail! Great to see another Cherokee on here. |

| I only saw one other Cherokee on the site and none of the musketeers. Musketeer might be due to be built now, its very similar to the Cherokee, but with smaller fuse and wings. |

| Are you going to fly it?
I am still debating if I am going to try mine. |

| Yes I have the CG at the correct spot and plan on seeing if it will have enough to go around once the grass in the field grows taller. I live in the north and the grass is just now starting to green and grow. No leaves on the trees yet. Still too windy. The last 3 guillow models I have tried all flew well enough and 1 of them (Typhoon) flew exceptionally well. So I assume this one would fly also, although at 81g(2.9oz) it probably won't be a duration champ. I added 24g to the cowl to get the correct CG. |

| My CG was on the money too; literally (see my build thread, $0.04 worth!)
It did OK in my living room on to a few pillows so I am also awaiting tall grass and nice weather.
Best of luck with yours; nice work! |

| TJH yours was the Inspiration. Your Cherokee is probably much lighter though and will probably fly much better. |

| Thanks wonderfrog, but your detail as I mentioned is excellent!
I agree with you on the Guillow 900 series; my Bird Dog is a fun plane to fly, and I have a Chipmunk and Trojan on deck but don't know when I will get to them. |

| This is one of the nicest examples of a Cherokee I have seen yet.
Super job! |
