Mike Freeman Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I've enjoyed a summer full of happy "Boo" flights after my review in the March 2022 issue of RCM&E and I was wondering if anyone else in the UK took the plunge and got themselves one? It would be great to see some photos of other examples! Cheers Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedMaster Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Hello, I'm currently building a Boo and love your color scheme. What type of covering and exact color did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Freeman Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 Hello, The covering is transparent red Oracover. I thought about using the light weight stuff but a quick calc showed it would only save a few grams and as I sometimes fly off thistle covered slopes in Derbyshire I went for the full fat version for added strength and protection. I think it's essential to use a transparent covering to show off that fabulous geodetic wing construction!! I'd love to see some pics of yours when it's finished. Where do you fly? Cheers and a happy new year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Freeman Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 Oh, and the white wing tip flashes are solid white Oracover! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedMaster Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Thank you for your quick response, Mike. I live in Bodø in Norway and most of my flying is either around Bodø or in the Lofoten area. Then I have to order som standard red transparent Oracover.
