Thank you Michael for the link to the kit. It looks like a great kit. It is
somewhat too advanced for some member in the club who do not have experience
with kit building. My intention was to have members build a small kit to
start. A boost in their confidence.
Now I hope I hear from members who would be interested in building a small
kit. This would be a great club project. I think we need to do more stuff
like this to keep the fires burning.
