And everyone....
Into April 2019 the left wing is almost complete. Mr. Littleton has a better way with wiring.
We returned from the holiday break on January 6th, 2019 to find the wing kit had arrived for airplane number two! Inventory time!

Welcome to Airplane Number TWO and BEYOND!
To avoid being repetitious, this portion of the website that shows our building will be brief and show highlights only. Please enjoy the ride!
Thanks to another generous donation from Joey and Neal Bowker, we have purchased a tail kit for a SECOND airplane!
This fall we lost a few kids to graduations and universities but gained 4 new students. The new students will concentrate on building tail section number 2, while to older kids continue on the first airplane, and of course help the newer students succeed in their build.
While Daniel works on his wing, Brian can be seen outside with the canopy of #1.
Tail kit number 2 sits in the foreground waiting for an inventory.

IS THE ABOVE PHOTO OF WYATT A PREDICTION OF WHAT WAS ABOUT TO TRANSPIRE? COVID STRIKES, S.A.T.A. FOLLOWED PROTOCOLS PER THE C.D.C. AND FINALLY SHUT DOWN FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THE FOLLOWING PICTURES WERE TAKEN WHEN WE RESUMED AFTER SHUTDOWNS. A DECISION WAS MADE NOT TO REPLACE THE STUDENTS WHO HAD GRADUATED BUT CONTINUE WITH THE SMALLER GROUP THAT REMAINED.
Trim Tabs Done!
AIRPLANE #2 GETS WINGS ATTACHED AND NOSE GEAR INSPECTED.

In January, 2020 Brian finally got to fly the airplane with Mr. Brasch that he put so many hours into building, while a friendly dog looks on.
They scared off the kids.
As the school year ends, the position light of the left wing marks the wing's completion, as Mr. Littleton helps Daniel and others get started on the right wing.
