This is another test build for Dave Diels. This time it is to check the 'fit' of laser cut parts.
 
This is being built as part of the Pearl Harbor / Midway Cookup currently running on the YAHOO Free Flight Cookup group site. It will be finished in either a Midway red / white striped rudder scheme, or yellow wing scheme.
