Hurricane Sandy had me stuck inside since Sunday so I took the time to clean up the hanger/shop and organize the fleet. My latest addition is a Parkzone P-47 which I built from an airframe. I still need a set retracts but I may wait on them and maiden it with the fixed gear.
Yes, I've got two Durafly Skyraiders. I crashed the original back in June and I thought it was beyond repair so I ordered a second one. While I was waiting for the new one to be delivered, I was able to fix the first and get it flying again. It files great despite the fuse and wing being glued and skewered with bamboo in several places, The second was left in the box until last weekend. I'll probably sell the first one after I maiden the new one since I really don't have the room for both.
Enjoy the pics.

Here's my fleet in the hanger. The PVC pipe racks really keep the planes from getting damaged. Yes, there are two Skyraiders. You are not seeing double. -

My trusty Super Cub and Parkzone T-28 and the new Parkzone P-47. I've added flaperons to the cub and flaps to the T-28. The jug still needs retracts and the servo wires need to be taped down but all else is ready.. -

My Parkzone Wildcat and Durafly T-28 and Skyraider. The Skyraider was my first Hobby King purchased. I crashed it really bad on the first and second flights. I was able to make repairs and get it flying again.
Spent last Saturday afternoon/evening at a farm in Chester County, PA with my warbird fleet. The grass at the farm is too long for takeoffs so I had to hand launch and belly land everything. Spent a great 4 hours until the packs ran out and the sun began to set.
