Thanks guys!

No, I didn't carve the prop. It's a Xoar WWI prop. Just Props has them and well as Balsa USA.

Hey Hopper, nice D VII, love the color scheme, interesting subject pilot, I like it.  Just in time for the new flyin' season.  Have you maiden it yet?

Just to give you all a heads up, I have had some serious heath issues again, heart & lung problems. A few days in the hospital, but the road to full recovery will be a slow go.  I plan to make as many of the events possible, I'll just be a little slow setting up my airplanes.  Pass the word to the guys, I'll be at the fllyin' field when I am able.

Fair Winds & Happy Flyin'
   Rich
