Cheers PatMc,

This afternoon i decided to get my record breaker out of moth balls, she's powered by an old 61 merco ,BUT i hasten to add it's been rebuilt and runs very sweet indeed ,Now the question does she take a long reach plug or a short reach ?I rather tend to think a long reach would do the trick ,I had her running up this after but every time i took the glo start off she stopped ,it's got a shot reach in at the mo so what do you recon ? cheers TD Edited By David Ashby - RCME Administrator on 24/04/2011 15:36:05

I was looking at your build photos ,you really do make it look so simple ,after looking at all the pics i thought blimey i could go up to my work shop and knock one of these out in a couple of days ,UH!not really but you do make it look easy ,I've all most convinced my self to go for it along with the 2 projects on the go at the moment ,Being one of the old school i think it would be ic any way cheers i will be occupied for ages now Edited By taildragger on 31/03/2011 18:20:48

Managed to get hold of the 3part plans,I think i will make this a project to possibly be ready for next year ,I want to build this as precise as possibleand not get rushed  Are there any vids of it flying ?  TDEdited By taildragger on 12/03/2011 14:56:33

Whilst watching Glenn's video i found this giant model ,I can see what he meant about the winglets breaking off on landing ,By the way i've put this on a new thread as Glenn's<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/i0YXeITOjyE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> thread seams to have finished.

It's a funny thing really , I was at the patch on sunday rummaging through some old copies and came across the bloody Mary ,I have to say it grabbed me straight away what a stunning model !As vintage models are my mane thing i have to build one ,But reading some posts on here just realised there is a second plan i'm hoping it will be in the pile at the patch other wise i will have to beg it from some were, I'm going to sit and have a read upon it ,I'm getting quite excited about it now i have decided to build it .
