This is the new pride and
joy of WALLY, who hails from Bassano, Alberta, Canada. He has
finally got his Sig Kougar complete after 10 years in the box! He
says he shouldn't have waited so long to finish it, because it is such a
good flying airplane. He's a lucky chap - his wife helps with the
covering designs of his models! |
| "This one I call The
Pig", says Wally. "I bought this baby from a fellow who
sold it to me for $100 including retracts. It is powered by a YS .61
Long stroke with a Hatori 650 pipe and Macs header. To balance this
thing, I had to add 18 oz. of lead under the engine. Total weight ready
to fly is 11.5 lbs. It flies like a heavy pig, hence the monikker The
Pig. One thing I would like to know is the real name and
manufacturer of the kit (plan). I know that the plane is old - almost 20
years." |

| Anybody
able to answer Wally's question?
I am hoping to to hear more from Wally so
that I can introduce him to you in the next update of ModelFlight. |
