	Excellent work Tom. The landing gear details really bring it to life. Good luck with the big move. Got my fingers crossed for ya'!!! Let me know when you get nested up in the new place.

	What does THIS button do?.........

	Hi All, Well I'm trying to finish up the last two construction projects before the big move to Texas... Here's the final pics of the Fairchild F-24... She glides real nicely. Going to try some winds on her hopefully Friday weather cooperating... Here's the pics... kinda a walk around... Ya'll have a safe and sane New Years... all the best Tom

	Hi, confession time....got lazy and put a grey peck prop 5 incher. Balanced perfectly and glides nicely so far across the livingroom. Will try outside soon... Molded prop for another project soon. Tom

	Looking forward to seeing you do the molded blade thing. LG looks tough to do.

	Hi All, Just got the computer working again...a bit of a snafu with a virus cleanup... This is a model from a cookup at HPA. Here's a bare bones of the first mockup...several views... Now I have some pics with the tissue added...still have "N" numbers to add to wings and rudder... This was a fun little model that got me out of my building slump... The landing gear was a bear to duplicate...but really makes the character of the F24 come alive... Will be using a 5.5 inch prop yet to carve/cut...will make of molded blades on a bottle and added to a bamboo hub...details later... Tom
