  1. My A-10 build is almost finished, just needs painting. I've been itching to get started on this build and today I did! The Phase One is a 73" span slope soarer, to me it looks like a Slingsby Capstan with a T-tail. The fuselage is very wide (5" at the wing leading edge) to accommodate reed radio gear that was originally used when it was designed in 1969. It has a balsa box fuselage and a built-up one-piece wing with sheeted 'D' box and ailerons. The tailplane is all moving. I've had the plan for at least 10 years, I bought a canopy for it at the same time. Chris described this model to me as 'over engineered' and that some things were designed how they are because he could! It is certainly going to be a challenging build that will push my skill limits. My target is to have it finished for next spring (six or seven months) so there shouldn't be any self-induced pressure to rush. I had started collecting a large box full of balsa and ply for it a while ago, will need to order more. I estimate total materials cost in the region of £100 at today's prices. Will post some photos later this evening. Cheers Gary
