Just came back yesterday from a family reunion in Holland. Visited Ton van Munsteren at his house. Ton is a published model airplane designer and has published many designs in British model magazines. One of his designs https://www.sarikhobbies.com/product/mustang-p-51b/
I have built his 2 meter power glider (Red Eagle) and speed 500 midwing design- Chica.
He asked me to test-build his newest design and gave me a kit. After careful consideration (a nano second!) I agreed to build it. 8)
Had to cut things into pieces to fit into my small suitcase.
Will start this when the snow starts to fly.

Photo 1- with Ton in his shop. The Boxfly is the blue plane in the foreground.
Photo 2- the pieces in my suitcase. Orange control cables on the left.
I think the snow started...
Trying to find the "start" button.
Right now my life is a bit of a pain.
Sorry to disappoint.

Hi Frank , hope all is well.
Looking forward to the build of the Boxfly.
Including a picture for motivation
Regards from Dordrecht NL.
Ton,
Great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are doing well.
By now you will have received my e-mail update and excuses why the model has not been built.
It is a project in the New Year (January) to be finished in time for a test flight once the snow disappears.

Hi Frank,
No problem its more important to get better again, the model can wait.
Cheers, Ton
