    Yesterday after many years of flying my modified E-Flite FW-190 I was landing after a beautiful flight, practicing for our club open house this coming weekend, when I made a long landing approach and flew into a tree lining our approach. A stupid mistake but my concentration was fixed on the plane. A total loss. After a cold mind-numbing drink, I realized my Brian Taylor FW-190 plan was 61" and gear, spinner/fan, mtr, etc. would all fit. So, I will bring another FW-190 to life this winter.
    I was hoping to chase and shoot down my buddies FMS P-47 Saturday

    Best regards, Rex

    There's nothing worse than losing a favorite plane that's the downside of our hobby but we all live to fly another day. Sorry for your loss.

      Guys,
      I am selling my parts from my crashed FW-190. They consist of both r/l outer wing panels w/servos. One carbon rod spar is cracked but can be fixed, good/excellent condition. Both halves of the stabilizer with carbon spar, one elevator is missing. Asking $70 for all plus shipping costs.
      Best Regards, Rex
