Default RE: NEED HELP FROM BIPLANE GUYS

I am thinking about going with this color scheme. I saw this plane and fell in love with it. I would like to try and recreate it. It looks so much different than any other biplane I have seen.

Hey tonystro,

Does this plane have any bad habits? Where exactly is it balanced? What is the overall weight of the plane? The cowl is butchered up from the previous owner, so that is why I need to get a new one. Is the cowl supposed to fit kind of snug around the fuselage? I am used to seeing cowls having a 1/8" to 1/4" clearance around the fuselage, but this one seems to fit really snug. Can you please post some picks of the cockpit. I am needing to buy the canopies (or is it windshield?) and the gauges for mine. I am hoping to have this thing covered in a few months. Any other pictures of your beautiful bird would be greatly appreciated. This will motivate me to get started soon!!!

Thanks,

Bullseye
