Flight Log - 2020-05-08 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Estes Der Red Max Clone

First clone I build after gettin' back into t' hobby.

This was a re-build, this time I filled t' seams on t' body tube and launch lugs. Well, blow me down! It is now painted red, ya bilge rat, nay orange. New decals from t' Estes reissued kit. I used Americana clear acrylic with good results - very shiny. No skull and crossbones parachute in this kit.
