Hi,
I attach a couple of pictures of my HW4 Flamingo. I built this from the Chris Williams plan 3/4 years ago. At around 5 meter wing span I recall that this is 1/3.5 scale. A great model that favours the pilot, you have to be very heavy handed to get it to misbehave. The build was given a good kick start by using a 'short kit' from Traplet Publications Plans Book (as was). Now I think Sarik Models can supply this. I flew it today and a buddy who can use a camera was able to get some good photos for me. Another winner from Chris Williams. I understand that there is now a smaller version available. This I am certain is as good as this one. It is worth considering as your next project. A great scale model !

Lovely model Barry and it looks like you have a nice slope to fly from too - short grass with no rocks, dry stone walls or sheep!
