Finished the 1970's Omega

[That Rocket Man]

Not sure if an Estes Omega is considered mid-power but I finally finished an original 1970's Omega that I bought on eBay. It was water damaged so I had to redo the fins on new balsa, build the engine mounting rings from scratch, order new decals, replace the launch lug and and new 18"parachute and mounted Kevlar shock cord through the new engine mounts but it's finally done. Looking for a place in Birmingham to fly it so I won't lose it. How's it look?

Lovely!

I always liked the Omega. Recently picked up an original kit and will build it at some future date.

Can't wait to get back to building on mine. Less than a month from now, and I should be able to buy filler primer and spray paint w/o having to wait for days for it to be shipped to me (and in a language I can read fluently).
