Pretty CL planes

I've never cared much for the look of CL profile planes, so it is a treat to see that CL planes can actually be made beautiful and look more like real planes too...

Nice. I've always preferred the full bodied look too, but have only ever built profiles. The only exception being a Scientific Little Devil, a tiny hollow log which hardly compares to the magnificent Nobler and it's precision stunt companions.

I'm not sure if a great looking full body plane falls within my skill set... or patience limits. Jim Thomerson was kind enough to send me a copy of the Model Aviation issue containing plans for the Cheap Thrill, his self-designed 1/2A Tee Dee powered flapped stunter. It has built up tail feathers too. If I ever give it a go, I'll likely build something larger though.

I took immaculate care of his magazine, and after pouring over it for a couple of months, I graciously wrapped it carefully and returned it.
