New Model Build
bsadonkill Sat Sep 07, 2024 5:36 am
Over some of the 100-degree days I started building a Cleveland Viking. I have had the plan for a few years now and I have an engine to go with it. I also picked up a tick off type of ignition cut off and dethermalizer. I thought of this as a winter project, but it seems to be moving along fairly quickly.

Nicely formed. I love to view uncovered stick built airplanes. Is that a O&R Sparker? .29 maybe.

Nice Cleveland Viking cabin build, @bsadonkill , love all that balsa lumber, looks very lightweight. Inverted engine, haven't seen that in a while, seems common in the 1950's.

Thanks guys, it's an O an R .23. I think I will use a medium silk span on the wing and tail unit. I might use ploy span on the fuselage.

Great to see these classics still being built….. Ignition no less!!….I’m envious if you have a free flight field that large….
