The latest issue of KITPLANES Magazine contains a hint that Barnaby Wainfan is contemplating updating his Facetmobile.
Fast forward to February 2019. Your latest project is ready to test run its engine, but you decide to wait until the outside temperature climbs above zero. You have cleaned out your shop and sorted all the left-over hardware. All those ??? SPEC bolts are finally off the end of your bench. The honey-do list is almost complete. You have shovelled the driveway for the umpteenth time and you are feeling the first symptoms of cabin-fever. You desperately need a new project!

Fortunately your shop phone rings and Barnaby Wainfan is on the other end asking for your advice on the latest version of his iconic Facetmobile.

Which features are most attractive to you in a new Facetmobile?

Please help steer Barnaby towards the Facetmobile version that will produce the most flying copies.
