I've been to one IPMS nationals. What a blast. Some some incredible models and got to talk with a lot of great vendors. Really fun stuff. Enjoy! |

Work on the Mustang has stopped while we price and box up some Plastic kits to sell at the IPMS Modelmania in Stafford TX on Apr 30. This is how we make our model spending money;0) |

Lower fuselage reinforced for removeable wing mounting. Tail parts removed and will be modified to be removeable. |

Tis a great one. Looks like it's floating there! |

IMHO, it turns a great looking craft into an even better looking one. |

Initially, we considered rebuilding the radiator airscoop area. The more we consider this modified P-51D by Anson Johnson, the more we think we will do the same. |

Now comes the rebuild. First we will strengthen the fuselage where the wing will go. Then figure our a mounting system. Probably pegs and rubber bands. |

Prior to the flight session, we had removed the wing and reattached it with tape. After the hard landing, we merely added a couple more strips of tape and continued to fly. |

It was a bit breezy that day and one of the landings was not so gentle. |

Thanks, David. If one looks close at the fuselage, just behind the wing, there is bit of blue tape. In the next few pix, I'll explain. |

Bill, it flys great! You've got me hooked on these larger airplanes. I'm going to have tho dig into my 'stash' and start building some. |
