Hi Lee,
Glad to see you on the list.
For those that don't know him, Lee has been building Indoor duration planes in relative isolation - with correspondence from Jeff Hood, etc.
His first Hobby Shopper EZB came in a .5gm. It looks and flies great. His box of Eidolon parts look very good, too. I think we've got another high-end indoorist on our hands :)
You've got to make it to USIC, Lee!

This involved kids-oriented activities including: a paper airplane station, "Houston we may have an omelet" (egg drop), and, best of all, slip-together glider flying in the Eagle Hanger amidst a P-38, DeHavilland Mosquito, Ryan STA, and other great full-scale ships. The "best of all" part is because we got to fly in the ~40' hanger, too! The air was very good - 6 minute quarter motors up to the girders and straight back down the the launch spot. When I hung a bracing wire on ragged edge of one of the beams, I even got to take a scary ride on the lift to get it free.
