Hi, It is now the middle of August and there are no entries in the current 'challenge'. How are you guys coming along with your Guillows models? Does any one...
Hi Al, I intend on entering my two Fairchild 24s, Cub 95 and Stuka in your Challenge along with a sheetwood rubber job and a cat. glider. In fact, there are a...
OK, Jay, we've added your entry to this years challenge. If you want to make another series of flights and use them instead of your present ones, let me know,...

Nice looking Fairchild, Howard. Thanks for posting the pictures and sharing your experience with the model. If it is OK with you, may I post a picture of the...
Howard, the Fairchild looks fantastic, thanks for sharing. It seems like this is really one of the very best Guillows kits; I see one great build of it after...
I added some photos of my completed Guillows Cessna L-19. I have not had a chance to balance or trim it yet. The final weight without rubber turned out to be...
You did a beautiful job on that L-19. From my experience with the 900 series kits, if it weighs less than 28 grams, balanced and with rubber, it should fly...
