Well well well, what have we here I thought when I opened the back doors to the truck and trailer from Nelson/Blenheim this morning. For those shops off the main roads of the South Island, Tip Top is coming to a store near you , faster, (maybe) and as reliable as ever. Apparantely from the stables of Omaka is this 3/4 scale Piper Cub ready for another go at restoration with a yet another different owner. Sure beats emptying a full load of empty crates every day.   |

Do my eyes deceive me or is that a few loaves of bread acting as padding for the horizontal stabiliser?  ?  |

I hope it gets finished  I looked and looked and looked at Trademe and tried soooo hard to convince my wife that this would be a great addition to the garage for a year or 2 (or 5). If it had been in The Waikato and not the top of the south, it "may" have been different... Good luck with the build. |

Brilliant post Beagle, really funny. That's a tiny plane, must be for midgets.

Of course a low carb diet has other benefits for flying......reduced likelihood of carb icing for one  |
