I think this is Rob Bach's plane which is blue and gold. He flew it toBrodhead a few times, and it's really a nice plane. Cool instrument panels,lots of brass if I remember correctly. Interesting dude, told me when hegets bored flying he does mathematical algorithms in his head to pass thetime.My control horns are just flat stock and works fine, but I'd do the plansversion if I did it again. Easey peasey to build, strong and super light.My plane has NO dihedral and the wings don't really look droopy to me.Adding 1" is very common and is easily done.Andy, you are very welcome on this list and PLEASE ask questions, that'swhat it's all about. I personally found it helpful though to search thearchives first because otherwise, I would have submitted 1,000 questionsduring my build. As it was, I only submitted about 500!!Douwe________________________________________________________________________________
