Perhaps those of you that think Lizzie is an ugly son of a gun may like this one?



This Lysander is Canadian ! She was a target tug.

Now that is beautiful.

Looks like a wasp.

I didn't realise how BIG this model of yours is Ken.

Thanks for showing us the refurb.

Cheers,

Bruce.

Here in Queensland it is not as severe as TAS, we can still get out, just have to distance yourself and no more than 2 people.

Brainless millennials in Sydney and Melbourne though think they can party like there is no tomorrow.  Unreal, there was even a bar in Melb that kept trading and serving alcohol to revelers.

I braved the post office yesterday and need to go to Chemist warehouse later today.  Not looking forward to that at all.

You are welcome

Peter

Take care. This is serious stuff. That party of #WITS should be jailed !

Ken

I am shortly going to terminate this "refurbishment". I was going to do it all and then show a video of the test flight. But, with our severe restrictions here in Tassie we will not be out and about for at least a couple of months and gawd knows when we will be allowed to open the flying field again. Still, I have no truck with that! We should have closed borders weeks ago, but it is easy to be clever with hindsight.

Stay safe everyone, and stay at home.

Cheers 

Ken

Ken,
Thanks for the updates on the Lysander!
Most of us still wish there had been a build thread but 
the updates you posted are the next best thing!
Would be nice to have the fields open again...

Peter,
In an ideal world, the stupid millennials would be the
ones to die from the virus and not some innocent 
person to whom they passed it on. That may seem 
harsh but so is someone losing their life b/c of another
person's stupidity.
    We have the same variety of morons here in the U.S. also.

I suppose the yellow & black is functional if it 
towed practice targets but IMO Ken's black
scheme is nicer...
