| It did fly this morning. I'm sending these pics before leaving to USA in a few hours. |

| COngrats, Pak! Looks wonderful in the air too. You need to remove that balancing plug from the battery though, or tuck it away! |

| I went to 2 big hobby shops in San Diego trying to buy silkspan but no one seemed to know what it is. Could someone tell me how it looks like? I haven't seen silkspan myself !!!! Is it for iron on or wet dope/covering? |

| It looks like the same material in most Guillows kits, is available in three thicknesses (number of threads per inch/density), and is for wet or dry covering with dope or 50/50 white glue & water mix. I'll post a pic of it shortly. |

| David and Bill, I've got it..Thanks. By the way, it's much cooler here than May 1976 when I was here. |

| I'm from San Diego. I go to Discount Hobby Warehouse on convoy street (it's off of Clairmont Mesa Road, which is right off of the 805). They sell Guillows silkspan there. |

| Once again, this is such a great picture. Are you on holiday here Pak? |
| pakasit1812 | 25-Apr-10 20:49 |
| Went there and got many things I wanted. Thanks.
I'm here to select 6 Cessna 172's for a flying school in Thailand, and am still in San Diego. Love it. |
