heywooood | 25-Apr-17 22:19 | couple of questions answered in this picture... |
heywooood | 25-Apr-17 22:27 | see the shape of the upper wing mounted air intake?
also the canopy - I can cut the forward section off and paint it green to match the fuse..that strip can be replicated with thin acetate or similar and fared to the fuselage behind the cowl - the channel I use to slide the canopy on should raise it up just enough to clear that nose section.
Also note the chrome plated scoops in the bottom just inside the cowl..oil cooler intakes - or ram air intakes maybe? more research is called for |
heywooood | 25-Apr-17 22:55 | man - he is really sunk down in there, isn't he? I wonder what kind of drag induced yaw I would create sticking my whole upper body through those silly portholes so I could see where the F'k I was going...seriously. Why didn't pilots in 1932 feel the need to see where they were flying to..at record speed...in a crowded airspace.. |
Don C | 25-Apr-17 22:58 | One of these had problems with wing warping as well as the controls working "backwards" somewhere around 250 mph as I recall. |
