When I saw the heading on the Leader board "Old fashioned Aermodelling", I couldn't see who the author was. However, only one name sprang to mind, that of Saikat. I am one of the lucky few on this forum to have seen this dedicated modeller at work.

Totally agree......

i am in one way against the ARF's available in the market.... U build and then u fly..... that wat u learn better and then on even when u buy an ARF and damage u can always repair it with ur experience

but these days ppl dont have time to sit and build.... but for me its always build and then fly... else dont fly...!!

also a very nice  nice job done.... awesome finish...  :thumbsup:

getting ispired by you saikat sir.. :bow: :bow:

it was a co-incident that even i built a scratch build chuck glider along with mine. :giggle:.
my chuck glider's finishing is really very poor, but it glides now at very slow speed..
cant resist myself to upload image http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/want-to-build-a-balsa-glider/new/#new (http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/want-to-build-a-balsa-glider/new/#new)
although finishing will take a lot of experience, but i would like your comments.
