Ralph,

I’m definitely up for that as long as there is motorhome or camping facilities nearby.

What are the planned dates?

Regards

David

Hi Fred,

Yes, I also saw one of the guys had some great 3D models/prints of scale bits.    I've never built anything remotely like this so its all new for me.

I don't have access to a 3D printer as I didn't want to go down that rabbit hole, 2D and the laser is enough already :-).  Hopefully someone will kindly print some for me, for beer tokens, lol!

Hopefully we'll see each other at Mt Leinster, only a few weeks now.

Hi All,

Hope your all good.

Anyone started the Texan build yet?

I've had my kit a while now and hoping to start in the next week or so.  I've a 1/6th scale 2.5m Slingsby T30 Prefect that was a free RCME plan last year on the bench, so I need to get that to a stage where its off the bench to allow me to start the Texan

Some really good guide builds on the BMFA PSSA forum to help too.  Looks like there are a few wee issues wih bits in the kit so worth keeping an eye on the forum for those ahead of us.

Many thanks for the invitation and the hospitality for a newbie like me.

Teresa and I had a fantastic time and I was so chuffed to finally get the Ka8 maidened ….and my first aerotow too!  Thanks to  Fred for  being gentle on me and Ralph for keeping me right and getting me up…..and back down again, in one piece too

I loved it and hopefully the first of many trips to meet up with a great bunch.
