Yes, one finished build per month is a fine rate of completion. And the year still has three months to go. I'll be happy if I can complete six to nine this year! And that includes partial builds that are at some point of construction....
Keep it up sir!

I agree with the others Bolleken; you are finishing more than I am at this rate. Your focus is incredible and your skills are off the charts.

One of those funky 50's designs that were pushing the boundaries of aerospace at the time.

Yeah, hard to believe it can actually fly. The big question is how do you land the damn thing without killing yourself?!?

Well, like Harrier, they figured out in flight test that it was not for low experience aviators. A great concept of an aircraft, that did not quite work out in this case. VTOL flight is extremely challenging for fixed wing aircraft types.

I have never had a Salmon, but a Convair Pogo which I solt some years ago (KP model).
And I have got a Focke-Wulf Triebflügel by Huma....
Rebuying a Pogo sounds good to me!!!
