I finished it last pm while watching the last star trek movie on showtime. I give that one its ok but glad I didn't pay to see it. the pirate theoretically should have been a better performer but never lived up to the hype. I think it was exported to argentina and maybe one other country.
The fuselage is formed a lot like the B-24, a rectangle with rounded corners. see post 1 above of why it is vital to look up the cross sections on the net before proceeding. That's it for this batch, currently starting Bruno's P-40C in Chinese colors.

Thanks for these Ted. Had pretty much forgotten the Pirate. Interesting idea for an aerioplane.
