| This aircraft has no main interplane struts. the upper wing is supported only on the centre section struts. (see my first pic on here)

| Explain "No struts" please. |

| Really looks nice, Bob. I agree on struts. Wires are troublesome too. |

| ...there are no interplane struts! |

| Im afraid my eyesight isnt what it ought to be anymore and I struggle with these model builds as it is. I would love to revisit that area of interest and Ive looked at tilt tables and sliding squares often and thought about it just to mess around with. |

| ....are you tempted to do some model aircraft drawing then. Or do you already do so? |
| bobgood, Comment for image # 44572 | 15 May 24 12:43 |
| I totally agree with your comments! |

| My favorite class in HS was draughting and technical illustration. I liked the isometric and exploded view diagrams. Amazing to realize that every single individual part and component of the Apollo program was first rendered on paper by hand - along with every other product made before the current CAD age. I would love to lay eyes on the Apollo drawings. |

| No plans for this aircraft Brian. I drew my own. I was a draughtsman for the early years of my working life. and I still enjoy putting pencil to tracing paper. Never took to CAD! |

| Sure looks good, Bob. Did you ever find plans, or are you winging it? (pun intended) |

| Waiting for LE & TE balsa so that I can finish the frames, then do the 1/16" skinning ( the wings of the original were plywood covered) |
