Sorry for the off topic guy's sometimes it's good.

I Have had MS for 25 years now and i am still one of the lucky ones still walking around but it does take its toll on me. I know growing old is not for sissys and it does no use to complain .lol Back to seaplanes ! joe

I found this seaplane a week or so ago and it looks like a nice easy build. There is a laser company in IN cutting kits and its in the build thread . Tiled plans and video's are here. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1839491

Joe,

Yes, that one's on my list. Familiar with Vlessie's designs. Built his Convair Sea Dart. Bob (Birdofplay) from Indiana does a great job cutting out the depron parts on his cnc for those who you are lazy like me and don't like cutting out foam pieces from a template.

Been messing around with pattern ships lately. I'm like an experimenting teenager, always trying new things. Just finished a GWS Formosa II kit. Was almost like a scratchbuild except the 5 EPO foam pieces were provided. It cost me a little over $50.00 to build since I had a motor , servos, rods, horns, etc. I'm flying on the cheap these days.

The 3DHS guys are here this weekend for their sponsored event called a Fly-low in. Should be fun to observe. I'm far from ready for 3D. Heading to the field tomorrow.

Best,

-Hawk
