“Tissue is just good old Esaki. It’s just so easy to work with, and it seems that most people do the LC-04 in a civil scheme, so this is just a simple military version with photocopied/sanded paper insignia. Turned out at 56 grams. It’s actually a really pretty model!” – Henry Toews
“Just completed your Aeronca Champion kit LC-04. Great wood and clean laser cutting. An easy build, and a great looking model when finished. Will be entering it in Golden Age Civil class at our upcoming Flying Aces contest Nov 13 in San Diego. Thanks for keeping stick and tissue alive.” – Mark Chomyn
