In that case Joe, you are the master of the rattle can. You must be getting clues and stencils from Robert. ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif)
Seriously, excellent work.

Re: Guillows ME 109 C/L Build
That could be an entry in 1/2a control line scale if you can get some documentation…

Thanks for the kind word guys . Roddie , I had so much fun building this , I think I’m going to build an RC version. Jerry , I’ve not ever built anything for competition. Not sure what you mean by documentation?

Re: Guillows ME 109 C/L Build
There is a 1/2a control line scale event at the nats in Muncie…. In a nutshell the three biggest measures… are the general dimensions scale… is there documentation to verify that your finish represents a full scale aircraft and will it fly ten laps. I would guess that a Guillows model is close to scale dimensions. Does your paint scheme replicate a full scale 109… can you keep it in the air for 10 laps.

Re: Guillows ME 109 C/L Build
At 3 second laps, 10 laps would be 30 seconds flight. Does seem to be an achievable reality, IMO.
