New homepage picture uploaded. Picture is of the Brewster Buffalo. One of the 'minute model' series designed by Herb Weiss. Model was built by Ken Horne....
Hi, Looks like this group has grown to eighteen members? Welcome to the new members. Are any of you building any 'minute models' or similar models? We would...
Hi, We've posted a new homepage photo. Please excuse the extreme cropping. The model is a 'zip' no-cal glider of a B-17 that we saw many years ago at an...
Hi, In the previous message we mentioned 'Zip' models. Some of you may not be familiar with these, especially the new members. These are simple sheet balsa...
Welcome, Joshua, I hope that you will able to find something of use in this group. It is just beginning and participation is pretty slow at this time....
Welcome to the group, Larry. There has not been much dialog on this group yet, even less mention of 'nickel' models. I'll try to post a few scans of some...
... Thanks for the welcome, Al, and for all your work in setting up these lists. I'd be very interested in the Hi-Flier plans. I'm sort of a Jeckell & Hyde...
As a newbie I've just read all of the messages here. I saw several requests for build info, etc. so I went looking. I've just GOT to become a better reporter...
Thanks for your comments, Larry. We've uploaded three of the Hi- Flier 'nickel' models in a file for Hi-Flier 'nickel' models. If these are the intellectual...
Larry, Thanks for the picture of the Dart and building tips. I like your idea of the 'strip' ribs. I've the parts of a Comet 'nickel' Ryan lying around with...
... Yippee! I confess to having led a sheltered life as I've never seen these. Nice little designs. ... Part of it for me is that I have far more fun...
... Exactly my idea of what a cook up should be. If you could make it 'official' maybe some others will jump in and participate. I find these 'build the same...
... There are maybe one or two more in the Hi-Flier series that George sent me, one that comes to mind is the Howard. ... Agreed! ... Yes, we have a copy of...
Welcome to the group, Garry Hunter. It is an honor to have you as a member of our little group. We have visited your Planpage many times and have often...
... Cut balsa. I think you said you were going to finish up your Ryan. I'll take a look at my plans and announce the start of something. Just not sure what...
... Al, you're talking to a guy who loves to look at plans. I'm also a guy who doesn't want to cause others a lot of work. I'd REALLY like to see the Howard....
I might be up for this myself. I think it's time I designed my own however, since there is going to be a Nickel mass launch at a contest nearby this spring,...
... Yippee!!! ... As it's been determined that there are no rules, that sounds like a great idea. But can we talk about the contest you're talking about a...
Larry, The contest is in Raeford, NC. Andy Mitas is trying to build some interest in it so as to present it to FAC GHQ for adoption as an official event....
... This news is getting better and better, Joshua. ... Hmm...I hope the 'retracted' debaters win. This hasn't been a problem in dime scale. I can sort of...
... Hold still while I churn a few out...there are 4 on the list. By the way, that Goon looks GREAT! What kind of times do you get with it? Good flying, Joshua...
... Great...you'll be making those plans available 'real soon' no doubt :-) ... Locally I fly in very tiny places so flight times aren't anything to scream...
So I guess you wouldn't have like the 4+ min flight my 16" Goon turned in yesterday! I'm now working on plans for the Nickel Goon. What a big fuselage for a...
... <grin>...I'd like it just fine. I just can't do it from my postage stamp field. I used to fly from a VERY large field when I lived in Arizona and only...
... They can't do that when they're allowing BAT monoplanes, Bristol Brownies, and Farman Sports! Seriously, though, I really do wonder why as well. A...
... I love the FAC but saying "can't" when it comes to determining that some things are ok and others not (even if not in the rules) just doesn't hold up to...
... Yea, I know what you mean. ... This is actually addressed in the rule book. If monoplanes are to be allowed, the event must be announced as such. ... ...
