First off, the mail gods must be looking down on me this shipment. Ordered Sunday night, June 21. Shipped June 23. Arrived on my doorstep (east coast US) today, June 27!

Anyhoo, ordered the FE.2b Late. Wanted an early bip that would expand my rigging skills (Ha!) and the night camouflage is da bomb, no pun intended. Definitely will build either A852 (D) or A5650 'Jess' (E). All this, of course, after I complete my H-B W.12 for the group build and my Roland C.IIa.

lots of stuff dribbling in over the past 1-2 months. Most noteworthy are Albatross wheels from Shapeways and natural rubber tires from Fat Otto. Many Thanks, Bo and Steve for your products.



   Also received a large order from Aviattic, the better half of it paid with my Gift Voucher from last year's Group Build Draw. This is only part of the order, love this stuff!



and finally, before they sell out:



    Been a great couple of weeks! (If I could just get some time to use some of this!) ;)
Cheers,
Lance

That cash is stowed away for the CapCon show in Ottawa Steve. That's the show where you're going to make a herculean effort to attend, remember?

Cheers,

Chris

That's not a bad start Lance but I think you can do better if you try just a tweeny bit harder.  ;D

Well, I do have orders enroute from Pheon, Gaspatch, and Nordland, they'll make a difference I'm sure!  :o ;D

Not sure why I mixed up my fellow Canuckle Heads. Yes Chris I'm going to be there. Hotel booked, days off and now if I can get my eye situation straightened away I might even try to build something!!!!

I'm booked in a 2 min drive away from you at the Travel Haven so I'm sure there's a refreshment stand somewhere near by we can all congregate at.

Here is one that is a little different. I have a Grandson due in Sept. My Son is decorating his room with airplanes and requested I build something to hang from the ceiling. So I decided on something that could be flown someday! Hope I haven't bitten off more than I can chew  :-\
