Tom the Gamma is 1/6 scale with a 96 inch wing span, I dont have the fuselage measurement with me but will post it with the next batch of pictures. I'm making the entire plane out of foam and using the wood formers as guides, then I will attach the fuselage to the center-section, next the whole thing will be glassed with fiberglass cloth and epoxy. After the glass is set I will have the guys in the paint area remove all of the foam using a petroleum based liquid. When the shell is sent back to me I will prepare it for our metal process. My goal is to keep the completed weight under 15 pounds. Hope this helps.
PS
Tom the second picture in my last picture post shows the outerwings with the foam glued to the formers, I have not shaped them yet but thats what the center-section looked like yesterday.
