Nice non-Mallard!

Thanks Glen and Ryan! Ryan...are you the person who had Aaron do a special TBD design? I may be barking up the wrong tree. Texas and Ryan Short rang a bell!


A bit more on the Duck. I decided to take Glen's suggestion (thanks, Glen) and I'm starting to test fit the lower wing first. I also got the cowl ring installed. Looking kind of cool right about now!


More soon on this Easter Sunday...Dan

I am glad to see the confluence of two paper modeling friends, as well as seeing one of my favorite airplanes take shape in paper.

Thanks, Don. I like the ol' Grumman too. Very utilitarian and despite being large and some would say portly, it would give you a real feeling of being in command and comfort.


Got the bottom wings on! Tails are next.

Good progress Dan

Thanks, All. And sorry for the hiatus, Glen. School just started and I had to torture some nurses! Plus...there was Easter!



Got the tails on but no struts or fillets yet. Top wing will be next!

I don’t mind certainly if you take enough time to enjoy it.
