Here is my original Aerospace Plane. Built around 2005 and still flying today. The right wing had been replaced and the tail had been repaired more times than I care to talk about but it's still flying.

Sent it up again this weekend at a club launch. At some point I'm going to need to tear this one down for a rebuild as it's looking really rough these days.
