Hey Alp, If I were to design a Pitts Model 12 (a radial engine aerobatic biplane) could you design the poster board parts for it?

Keegan, no problem. If you give me 2d or 3d cad plan i can design it. What are you using cad software?

Alp great work! The Corsair is one of my favorite planes and it seems like you're doing it justice!

I'd be doing it in either auto cad or Inventor. Thanks so much! I probably wont get around to designing it until later though.

I would like to thank you for choosing the "MARINES" on your decals. I'm a retired Marine and I appreceate your calling it out. Oorah! Also 513 is a local squadron here in Yuma,AZ. Their Air Show is next week.

The most significant question nobody asked. How the heck did he find the time to design and build these awesome planes with small children in the house?

HaHa!! Very very cool. He's just the right size to fly on that one. Also just caught that you have not just the FW-190, but also a P-47. Can't wait to see those progress. Thanks again for the share.

I'm not too far from Yuma, (mesa) and that would be awesom to go to.. The hard part in trying to convince the wife.
You plan on going?

Every year. Since I retired it's nice to go and enjoy it. I use to have to work it and I would miss much of it. RC Air Show is this weekend. Night Fly is tonght.
