Latest finished project, might have to become a P40 ASP 28 powered hanger queen. Or a weapon of a pylon racer but listed in general discussion as this was done with a freebie resizing app downloaded by Liz. Can be found at http://www.bricelam.net/ImageResizer/. Instructions: download / install / right click on photo(s) (hold down control button to choose batch photos), click on resize, the small is the one in this post. This free app is a work in progress so the "advanced" doesn't do anything yet but he's working on it.

I notice the Warbirds are on at TAA tomorrow .... and cannot see a Sunday fly day for WAM.... has it been cancelled ?

[Droneguy]

No tomorrow is still a fly day

Cool video you posted on Facebook on the TAA Warbirds day Droneguy. I just can't believe their club is so organised that they had a band there all day playing in the background. That's cool...

Have 6 or so people interested in making S.P.A.D.S.....   from Depron ,Coreflute ,.Foamboard, or whatever .....  as we know the jump from an "IDEA"  to actually getting a Project up and running requires some serious planning and i am hoping to do some brain-storming between now and the next meeting. I doubt  we will all want to build the same model  .... some may want to use Coreflute and others Depron ect: some may want to build a simple Delta Wing   look under Experimental Airlines on youtube for that one ... others may want to build more complicated planes as shown on "SPAD TO THE BONE " website and various other sites on the web.... i will post some links  soon in the S.P.A.D BUILD FORUM...... As i have already discussed with some other members our  great little shed should be ideal for for this project/s . We have tables ....  power for glue guns may be problematic but they are very low wattage so may be ok ...have to check on that.....Alternatively to start  we could concentrate on getting the plans downloaded and scaled to the correct size ..... cut them out and transfer to the build material and cut them out at home and then bring  back the pieces  for a session of folding and glueing..... So as i see it the first step for all builders will be to decide what plane they want to build and get the plans downloaded and cut out ready for transfer to the build material...this can be a bit tricky so a lesson or two on these basics may be a good starting point.......looking forward  to   GETTING SOME FEEDBACK  so as to be well prepared for the next meeting. PLEASE SEND all FEEDBACK to the S.P.A.D BUILD FORUM.
