I saw the same issue, thought the same possibility then raised it one "But, Jeez, it'd be a real b*tch on take-off & landing! One bad bump/bounce & she'd be a-over-t faster than the pilot could blink!"

Otherwise.... a very nice build, indeed!

Thanks for your generous comments about my J7W4. I´ve only to say your Corsair canard is really fantastic.

Do you like the canard aircraft too?. I´ve just got the kit of Ambrosini SS 4 (Cumarmodel). Do you know it?. I posted the "Ambrosini SS 5" several months ago. This is an imaginary transformation of SS 4 to jet. Now i´m making now the Me 262 canard.


All the best.
