Did you ever get a chance to put any more flights on this bird? Would love to see it in the air!

[JFandL]

I've flown it some 20 times but as far as I know no one has video of it yet other than the very bad flight test footage.

I just picked up one of these kits on clearance and am hoping to get mine detailed up to even half as nice as your machine. How did you do the rivet detail?

Rivets were done with Canopy glue 560 one at a time.

P.S. Sorry for the big delay in my reply. I got hit from behind in a truck last year and I was down most of the rest of the year. Still seeing doctors,
ROFL All good!

Glad to hear that you are OK! Sorry to hear about the accident though, and best of luck in your recovery! Thanks for the answer on the rivets, sounds like I should start now if I want to finish by next summer...
