What's new under the tree for the hangar?

Just wanted to shoot some pix before my BoT gets too scuffed up and was wondering what others are working on for the next season. This one has had about four days at the field and I'm still working out the balance.

I bet there are a bunch of AVA's and Topaz's out there as well as some nice moldies...

Anybody want to post a pic of what Santa brought ya?

I've got to admit, I'm green with envy!!! That's one really nice plane :cool: !

Here's my new ship! I also posted this in another thread a little while ago. I hope Santa brings me a 100" plane next year :D !

I'd have to say the Green Aquila is my new plane in the hanger.

I hope to have a Boomer dicus launched glider under the tree. This will be my first DLG and the only truly new plane this season.
This is a product review - be sure to watch the video

My newest thermal plane isn't new, but I am restoring a 3.6M Ventus 2C scale sailplane. It will be my first scale plane.
Ventus 2C 3.6M (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://hajime-b.hoops.ne.jp/ventus2c/ventus2c.htm&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dventus%2B2C%2B3.6M%26start%3D10%26hl% 3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN)

I am going to get a 2M slope plane up after I finish some repairs. The plane was given to me. It will be my second sloper and the first non epp sloper. Hope I am good enough to handle it.

So those are what will be newly flying for me this winter.

I'm getting a Scorpio Condor Magic. Hopefully I will get around to taking some pics and posting a review.

In order to post pictures on teh forums, be sure you reduce the size first. the photos have to be under 100K in size on most forums and under 60K on many.

I use 640X480 as my standard size after I crop out all the unnecessary part of the picture. Typically they are aound 20-40K and usually work fine.
