Neat.  It must have really hurt you to shorten those wings.
Are you OK?  Do you need to talk to anybody?

Seconded! ;D ;)

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Not only are the wings shortened but so are the prop blades. Where will it all end?
Is this the end of longer wings etc. ?
Has the maestro of high aspect ratio finally given up on that idea?
One certainly hopes not!

Hehehehe, NO chance Jim! It was just a minor aberration at the time.  ;D ;)

Can just imagine her rounding the pylons at Reno...would look OMG :wub: with its engine purring, like a cat that got the cream. Excellent :thumbsup:

I still have reservations about the concept, but it's a fantastic model nontheless.

Thanks for that Lee, I'm suitably flattered.  ;D

And glad the rest of you like it too, I've got an RW 'Miss Smirnoff' Bearcat somewhere and they'd make a good pairing perhaps.

The best laid plans etc............

The backstory for the Monsoooooon was on my newer laptop, which died y'day afternoon, and it seems the hard disc is toast, totally, and the data is irrecoverable......

Naturally I have backups, but only since last Friday when I made the last one, and most of the backstory was written over the weekend so now it's gone.  :banghead:

I'll re-write it but it'll be a LONG time as this old laptop is very slow and takes for ever to do anything. I'll have the duff laptop back next week, but of course it'll be empty and it'll take AGES to re-install much of the software and get the data back from my archives.

Don't hold your breath...............

That's bad news Kit. If I can help just ask and I will do what I can which will probably be not much.
