Beautiful aircraft, you did a great job, congratulations!
What a pity you had to lose it on a stupid take off, we should know better right?
I have the plans for this one, actually I made several copies and had one made of mylar (I think it is called, somehow I know it is the wrong name), so it would stay in good condition forever, as this airplane is probably one of the best rendition of any twin civilian aircraft, and just the right size too.
I have all the formers cut up and I did built the nacelles and that as far as I went. Seems to me though that this airplane is a bit overbuilt with so many formers (like the real one), and that it could be made with much less fuss, this airplane should fly just fine with two good .46 to .51 two stroke engines. How much did yours weigh and weren't the .70's a bit too much power for it, what type of finish did you have on it?
