You can snap a picture like this. Just about ready to start covering, so I figure in about a month or so one of these should be ready to fly. I'll be doing the OMP edge like the last one, but I am unsure about the Burrito.

Way to go duuude!! Nice work!! Glad things are starting to move along! Just dont' slack off now and leave those two lovely ladies without any clothes!!!
There's something about the picture of a profile in the bones that I just love. Maybe because I'm just about done with my mojo wing :D :D

Keep us posted on the covering. Nothing like a hungry audience to motivate you to stay at it ...... Right? :D

You ain't lyin there !!! All of these build threads and completed airplanes, a motivating kick in the ass can really get some planes built. I guess after that pictures of the naked ladies I am comitted now.
Two nudes in the house???
How do YOU do it, man?????
:shock:
Hey, Lomcevec; Nice work, Dude! What part of AK are you in? Kinda looks like the hills around Fairbanks behind you, but there's lots of hills that look like that. Can you fly in the Winter? It sure would be awesome to fly a profile (with some lights on it) with the Northern Lights swirling all around it!
That picture was taken in Fairbanks, I am now living in Eagle River about 10 miles north of Anchorage. There are a few freaks that fly in the winter in Fairbanks but the average temp is something like -20 Deg F It's just no fun. I did fly when it gets around 0 Deg. Here in Anchorage the climate is milder and winter flying should not be a problem.

I would like to fly during a northern lights show but they do not show up on camera very well.

I will start covering the Edge tonight and get some sanding done on the Burrito.

Next though is the OMP YAK I have to start that, I'll probably build the MOJO at the same time.

I've got it!!!

Since I have more time than I know what to do with this winter, the burrito is going to have an Alaskan theme of sorts. I'm working on it now but this should be fun!!

I had the idea when I spotted some clip-Art on some disks that came with our computer. They were solid colors and most available in Monokote. So why not just cut them out as such then iron em down Done.
Time to call it a night. I am spending almost as much on coffee as I did on the airplane !!!

Got me MOJO today !!!! :rockon:

Thanks Paul
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing.. If you get the plane done in a month will there be any daylight to fly it? Is there any now? It's starting to get dark at 4:30 here.

Jeff
Well it doesn'y ever stay dark for 24 hours. You have to go above the arctic circle for that. At the worst we will have about 2.5 hours.

Right now it's getting dark around 6:00 we are losing about 7 minutes a day.
Little more. I was about to cover the Ailerons when I realized I never put in the control horn reinforcements :oops: Caught it just in time.

Hey guys I have a question.

How do you get these letters to line up as I had a hell of a time getting them to look right? Even then it is still not perfect.
looks fine to me :wink:
Lom, that looks great, keep up the good work. Remember, when it's going 90 mph in knife-edge, no one will be concerned about your alignment.

If it ever goes that fast it is going to be a pile of sticks, actually more like a well spread out debris field.
