- Reminds me of some construction article I read a while back. The writer
- had put together a kit of a scale model of some low winged Beech or Cessna
- and went into excruciating detail about this or that feature and this or
- that technique for finishing and installing the radio. Then came the flying
- session. It was real short. The author again went into excruciating de-
- tail about how the airplane was just slightly tail heavy and he thought
- he could get away with it and that in retrospect he ought to have shoved
- the battery further forward. Yup, you guessed it. He crashed it on the
- first flight on takeoff. Had pictures too.
