| John Cooper | Guillows Series 500 - Hawker Hurricane | Parked | 19-Feb-08 23:25 |  | | Views : 1696 | | Note the large amount of rudder offset, mostly to counter the port wing's drag flap. There is also a fair amount of right and down thrust, working against the torque. |
| John Cooper | Guillows Series 500 - Hawker Hurricane | Parked | 19-Feb-08 23:22 |  | | Views : 1968 | | Not a Guillows Hurricane, but a scratch built one, about the same size. It is a little battered after years of flying and repairs. The port wing has a drag flap to keep it from spiralling to the left. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 22:07 |  | | Views : 1936 | | The mold halves. The one on the right came out great but the one on the left has air bubble issues. |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built Polikarpov I-16 Rata | Build | 19-Feb-08 21:03 |  | | Views : 1076 | | Short and tubby with a very large wing! |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 18:06 |  | | Views : 1919 | | In about 4 hours (7pm PST) the top half will be cured and I can start casting some resin. Rubber mold cost is about $6, not too bad but don't go crazy with it. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 18:04 |  | | Views : 2017 | | Alignment lugs carved out and rubber-to-rubber release agent applied. Don't worry, I'll add this whole process to my web page on duplicating plastic parts. |
