Default RE: Scratch Designed/Built Sailplane Fuselage

I may have to make a chicken plane some day but not this day *grin*

Enough doodling

I could go on for weeks playing around with exotic pod shapes but I'd like to move on. Taking into account everyone's input (thank you) I've settled on this design that's a mixture of E3 & F3...



Artistic babble
While I like some of my more excentric designs, I think this one with its modern canopy merged with a retro pod works well. It has a few curves to keep things interesting without coming across as over-the-top.

Well I'm off to the LHS to pick up some wood. Time to start the build.
