A little about myself I was born and raised in the Los Angeles area and have been building models sine the time I was 8yrs old. I have continued to do model airplanes off and on for the next 46 yrs. My intention is to publish still photography and videos on this blog. I will be experimenting with different photography and video techniques and I am teaching myself about video editing as we go; therefore please make suggestions constructive. Well enough said lets go!
These are pictures of my 33% Cobra biplane one of the 5 airplane's that I finished building this year. It was built from Dan Satich plans published in Model Airplane News. Constructed out of balsa, plywood and fiberglass. Covered in 3/4 oz fiberglass cloth and West system epoxy resin. Painted using Klass Kote paints. Powered by a DA 50 with a 23/8 Bolly prop.Upcoming subjects are my video blog of building the Sig Sealane flying boat in time lapse photography and the completion of my 25% Aeroworks 330 Extra.
Comments welcome,
Gary

What are some starter airplanes that you would recommend?
ReplyDeleteNice photos Gary. I'm also in Long Beach (east side). Good to know there are other modelers in the area. I can't say I'm quite at that level of building yet. I'm currently working on the obligatory 1/4 scale Cub kit.
ReplyDeleteDo you fly at Whittier?
