SPRING BLUES BY MIKE EDWARDS

Hi everyone, hope you are all keeping well it's good to see all the projects that are taking place.

The Bug is the first one which was a small h.l.g. sloper which I have stretched slightly to torn into a d.l.g.

All we need now is the present bug to disappear to try it out.(?Groan- Ed)

The second model is a incomplete Republic Sea Bee which I was kindly given  at a club meet last year, I have had to fashion up quite a lot of  components which were missing and renew some of the balsa sheeting.

The other problem is only having half a plan and no instructions, the  original was built for an I.C.engine but an electric motor is planned.

The next problem is to find a correct position for the floats and a means  of fitting and also possibly removal for ground landing and take off on  grass.

Hope this helps - Ed

Hope you all stay safe.
