impressive concept design there 'goober' only thing id change would be to lose the upper cowling guns, might be a tad risky with a contraprop?

cheers, Joe

I'm afraid not. The seam on the bottom where the bottom of the nose meets the rest of the airplane has proven to be one helluvan obstacle. Its a result of the FW's nose being much deeper than the Macchi's fuselage, so theres a big step I've got to hide somehow. I can't just put a lump of putty there because it'd interfere with the undercarriage. I'm trying to come up with an intercooler assembly or auxilliary radiator to hide it.

Well, please be sure to keep it alive in another thread, then.  Way too promising to let slide!
