Hi Andre, I have sent you an email.

Richard Boyd:
Over the last week or so I have been extremely busy, but any spare 10 minutes were spent building bits of the Birdy.
I have to tell you all, this is my first plan build of a glider, well its not really a build but an assembley of precision cut parts.
A few photos of what I have done to date.


































Fus box photos later !!!!!!!!!!!

billscottni:
Nice Richard,
 
But make yourself some covers for that tail.................. black in the sun will bubble like a b******d :wink:

Richard Boyd:
The pod is black also lol.
Wings are going to be covered in what ever colour I can find in the workshop.
This is also my first time covering.
Dad usually did it all for me as he loved this job.

Happy Days:
Coming along nicely Richard. Sorry to say this, but the fuse section looks like a Phase 6, except with a carbon boon out to the tail, Ha! :lol:  ( I’m only joking with you.)

You said you sanded an airfoil on the elevator, don’t you mean the horizontal stabilizer? :?:
 What would be the benefit of sanding one on the elevator?
Is it symmetric or semi-symmetric?

Nice pictures by the way,………is that the Lumax you’re using?
