Scratch Built Grumman F9F Panther by Creosotewind. Viewed 1084 times. Build Thread Next Prev Click image to return. Image Comments Creosotewind 10-Jul-09 16:25 Beginning test fit of parts. Creosotewind 10-Jul-09 16:44 This should actually be in the Panther build. jgood 10-Jul-09 19:24 Now moved... It looks great. I like that complexity around the nose gear area. Think it'll add much weight? Creosotewind 10-Jul-09 21:26 Thanks James. I'm not building it to fly, so weight isn't an issue for me. However, with its size, it doesn't seem excessively heavy. It is pretty rigid though, which, if someone wanted to turn it into a flyer (jetex maybe?), it could probably handle it. Right now it is at work. I'm building a wing at home. I'll weigh the parts and post them on monday. poppy 11-Jul-09 15:50 This looks fantastic. I really like the fin, a later model with the taller planform, a 4 or 5 mark. Creosotewind 12-Jul-09 00:16 Poppy, actually this is a 2 or 3 series. I cogitated which series to do and settled on the earlier series as it was an F9F-3 that first shot down a Mig in Korea. Also, I just learned Neil Armstrong flew an F9F-3. If I can find info on his plane, that might be one I ultimately model. Please sign in to comment on this image.
