Questions:
Is this a kit plan, or is it from an old magazine?
Is wing adjustable fore & aft for C.G. adjustment?
Did you double-cover the nose block and tailfeathers? With most white tissue you would almost have to D-C to make white sheet parts that look as good as yours.
Glad to hear that it is a successful flyer for you, congrats on that .

I dont feel as though it would be good for my first one. So I'm going to try a little easier one. an Me=109. Its a scale FF 14.5" WS, and has on plan how to make a jig to carv the prop. I think it'll give me the experience I need.
