John Cooper	Guillows Series 300 - Fiesler Storch	Build	03-Mar-14 12:06

A Dumas, Not a Guillow's Storch. I am covering it with blue tissue, chalked with black. It will have a post war Aeronavale (French Navy Air Arm) paint scheme. I won't be using much paint, however. The cowl here is covered with many bits of blue tissue.

Even the simplest frames work. This is a clear plastic one, about $5.

How many out there remember Captain Blackhawk and the Blackhawk Squadron fighting tyranny and oppresion. It is an interesting scheme . My wife looked up the comic books and found a lot of them for sale on e-bay.

The tail feathers are over build with many ribs. I decided to make these out of 1/8th balsa sheet.

A single sheet provides the pattern for the building parts. Be sure to make an extra set. I made three sets and was very glad I did,

This us my first build from Cleveland plans and I find them a bit of over engineered. The single sheet of XF5F-1 Skyrocket are no ecception. Before starting I made a second set so I could read the instructions on the sheet while building.
