Thanks Brent and Trevor.

Yes Trevor, as you know the Suk stands tall giving it quite a presence. I have not been that nervous since I maidened the Carden Extra 300 you built for me, but I was flying a lot more then.

When do you plan to piece together your 100cc Sukhoi?

2) 3DHS Yak 55/DA-70/RE2..I must say this combo is the absolute best setup I have ever flown. The DA 70 runs, sounds and responds like an electric setup, it is now my favorite engine. The Yak is phenomenal, even with wingburner's rust covered thumbs. I let a buddy fly this combo today and when I left the field he was still in shock!!! I didn't get any video of it but I'm thrilled!!
I've maidened four planes in the last year soon to be 5

A few more nights on the Tucano and then tear down my Pilot Yak55 for Dale () and then get into the Sukhoi build!!!...hopefully on the weekend if all goes well

Those big ones are intimidating for sure!! They fly like a trainer but still carry a huge Holy $hit Factor, LOL
