| The Jenny looks great! well crafted. Riggings all look perfect. |

| Rigging looks good, and so does the whole model. These W W 1 aircraft are getting top billing today. |

| Ahoy Dale thanks for your reply yes I agree Dale I never seen this before on a balsa kit of this nature. This is one of the wonder blunders of the last of the Comet series, the criss - cross ribs are suppose to give the wing structure a warp free construction method. I didn,t like this type of wing rib and spar assembly. In over all view the kit is junk. Yes I will be adding the rigging I will have the fini8shed outside pictures of the Jenny tomorrow, Thanks Dale I hope your Jenny is coming along very well to your kit is much better then mine.

| Unusual wing structure {criss-cross ribs}. Will you be adding rigging to this Jenny? Nice color scheme. |

| Looking forward to the results of your Curtiss "Jenny" build. About ready to go RC flying with it? |

| Ahoy Dale thank you for your reply Dale, Yes this is true they very somewhat from aircraft to aircraft like most aircraft generaly do. your building a different design of the kit that comet offered, this kit is the newest designed they produced in 1973. the engine side fairings on your kit is made from cardstock or brown paper, the details haqve to be made from you the builder again scratch time. But it will be worth it at the end result of the build. Love to see your progress Dale thanks man for your reply. Boats |

| Looking Great !! The Comet kit I'am building had no parts or illustrations for the 90 HP V-8 engine detail, so will scratch build that. These "Jennys" had various exhaust profiles. |
