Wow, a year? That is not encouraging. I ordered the same plane 3 months ago. Don says Feb. maybe but I expect it to be longer. It is always longer. I hope it is not a year. I would like to go down to Poway and compete in the IHLG competition they have every year, but being new to the sport, I was hoping to have my planes for a while to practice. If it is a year, guess you won't be seeing me there until 2002. Since I am new to the sport, this is my first season, it is not like I have a full hanger of stuff to fly while I am waiting for planes to come in. I met someone who was kind enough to give me an old climax to practice. As there has been very light lift around here lately, I may just be able to fly it on the slopes too. I made a new horizontal stab yesterday for it and hope to fly it today.

(Bozo is my writin name but I now call myself "Starvin Marvin"(Starvin Marvin is a South Park guy*)) Fat free food is not what I am used to eating! But at 240 pounds, things are starting to get a bit out of hand. Back to the phone... Its Don Peters....and his bag of toys....seems the guy wants MY address...He is shipping me the new poly floater...(I have no idea what the thing is called).... Now the reason I am sharing this is simple... I HAD TO WAIT ONE FULL YEAR FOR THIS PLANE. Let me say this again... I HAD TO WAIT ONE FULL YEAR.... So when I here that so and so has been waiting 2 months for such and such plane from Transylvania or what ever... I think " Thats nothin...lighten up dude" And for Gods sake stop trying to beat up on the guys who are puttin planes together for folks who don't know how. The model industry is a very slippery buisness at its best. Ask your self what happened to Mark Allen...where is Mark...He took his fine talents in mold making and works in the marine industry. Why??? cause he NEEDED TO EAT and guys that buy toy airplanes are all a bunch of cheap bastards. Somehow if a guy is trying to make a profit...It is viewed as some unholy ripoff. You are all lucky that there are a few guys out there who are still building stuff that you can buy. Seasons Beatings. Your ever so humble... Bozo PS You shall have a full report on the new HLG toy the day it arrives. Giddyup Fed Ex, * South Park...Comedy Channel Wed Night RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
