What a result Paul and what a great video, who said men can't multi-task ?

I look forward to seeing the Challenger in the flesh. I thought your initial test regime will keep all your planes in future well protected.

Its a new one really, is'nt it?

It took about £6 of Cyno glue a quantity of Marine Epoxy glue, a metre length of 1/16 balsa sheet, a metre length of 1/2 x 1/4 balsa strip, a quantity of Profilm cover at £8 a metre and umpteen complaints from my wife, to complete the repair.

No your right Slip, I bought Paul a new one, I kept the old one. Goes like a bomb!

I forgot to mention that it also needed about a square foot of two thicknesses of thin ply to make up new bulkheads and fuselage wing ribs.
