Thanks for sharing all that's involved with making a plane go faster. I remember as a teenager at the Cleveland Air Races in the late 1940's when I first saw Anson Johnson's P51 with the belly scoop off and I asked him why & the answer was "To make it go faster". Keep it going onward.

Thanks for the update! It is going to be exciting to see this plane at Reno! Any chance of Reno 2018?

Definitely 2018.

You're welcome. I need reminding to do so every so often as I'm really busy on it.

A cut and paste from the other thread about Relentless:

Hmm - name that plane? "Pricey" would be a decent name as it's a synonym for expensive. Should we make this a "name-Tom's-airplane" contest?

Or how about "Charlie?" As in Charlie from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory as this will be your gold ticket ride to the gold heat?

Very, very brief update as I'm scrambling right now. Lots of little things done, but nothing really worth mentioning. Here is how it sits today. Most of that primer will get sanded off too.



And the bottom of the wings from a few months ago. Pretty slick if I don't say so myself. Wingtip trailing edge needs dressed, but not until I finish the top side bodywork.



More later when I have time.

Thanks! Eh, time runs out for everyone it seems like. I don't want that to happen, but there is so much to do for one person. I have to be an expert on a lot of areas to make it the way I want it, without depending on anyone. Also helps the budget if I do it. Tig welding will be my next personal challenge.

Thanks and you are welcome! I'm sorry I don't share more. I literally have a thousand build photos, but for most people 99% of them don't mean anything. They have helped me a lot actually, like the work we're planning for #30. I have a step by step how I did it in a folder, just need to follow along. That is a lot easier than thinking up each step before you do it.
