Thanks very much, Don.



Hey...did you try to go to the meeting today? I couldn't get on. The good news is that I worked on my prop!


I hope you guys are well...Dan

Does this plane have a radial or rotary engine? It looks old enough to still be in the era of rotary.

good work Dan

Thanks David and T...


T: Yes...it's a rotary. I've made is spin nicely. We'll see if I can keep it spinning by the time the cowling goes on!

Got the wings skinned. Next will be putting the lowers on and creating the top wing all with the correct dihedral. Should be a dawdle.

Coming along nicely!

Well...it's been 6000 years, but I'm back at this one. Life just kept getting busier and busier and now I've got some free time! Since last time, I got the bottom wing on, the dihedral created, all four ailerons completed and the top wing glued with the appropriate dihedral as well. You can also see the little jigs that came in the kit to help get the correct stagger and plumb on the wings. I backed them with balsa so they will be a bit stronger. So the struts are next along with putting the top wing on! Can't wait.

Thanks for looking...again.

Got the cabanes, interplanes and top wing on. Looks just fine and was simple to do. I'll start some rigging next and then it's on to the landing gear!


Cheers,
Dan
