That's a great looking plane. I can't wait to see it when it's done. My dad used to work at the Mansfield Lahm 179th tactical airlift in Ohio and when I was a kid I got to fly on those for family vacations. I hope you have the best of luck with this project.

............when I was a kid I got to fly on those for family vacations..........

I got to fly halfway around the world on a C-130-web seating and all. It was a trip I'll always remember. I got a real good feel for how big the Pacific Ocean is, flying at 20,000' and at C-130 speed!

THis is spectacular. I am intrigued by the flap design. I would like to borrow it for my Dean Lassek A-10 - still a future project.

Enrique; Can you share more details on the flaps? How did you bend the "T" rails? Also, what is the mechanism/ slider block on the flaps and how is it mounted? The pics so far are good, but I could not see much of the flap mounting.

Thanks and good job. Bring us up to speed on your latest progress!!

I don't speak Spanish beyond a few words. But, if you give me your thoughts in Spanish, I'll can put it thru an on-line translator. I also have friends that can help.

Gracias

I use the translator to write. Explain the details in Ingles is very difficult for me, I will send you email with the data.

Hey Beplo,
I thought you might be interested in this photo. Do you have these landing lights on your model?
