My Latest build for 2013 was created by The Beard

I was hoping to do a Christmas build but 2 things happened.1st our met a new young lady ans second for the first time in 16 years 2 of my sons decided to spend Christmas eve and Christmas lunch with me ,which was great.So Ive started the build and its a 2013build instead.Its ARTF has a 61 2 stroke and sdome photos will follow soon,Whats different is Im not telling which model it is.Seeing who can recognise the model first.Its an open cockpit model.

Is that a six and a half stroke, or a six hundred and twelve stroke? :evil:

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

61 powered ARTF with an open cockpit? no idea. :unsure:

I'm guessing a scale model?

These are my guesses...

1. Tigermoth
2. Travel Air
3. Fly baby
4. (open top) geebee
5. Bendix special
6. Sopwith or Fokker bi/tri plane
7. Pt-19 / Pt-17 (already said)
8. SE5A

I'm going to stop guessing there, my head hurts aha... did I get it right?
