Ian,  Thanks for the reply.  I see you on the conference quite a bit.  
No, the snow isn't gone yet,  We just had a blizzard(30 inches of snow 
in two days) but it's getting better.  I attended an old timers contest 
2 weeks ago at a local lake.(frozen over with snow )  I didn't have an 
old timer plane but I had some fun with the fun-fly portion.  This is 
my second model (the first a victim of a downdraft) and I hope it will 
stand up to the punishment of newer flyer.
