the design was done according to Paul Matt collection, The airfoil is not the original which is something like clark Y, we changed this to have a better perfomance flying inverted.

Vox I contacted Waco classic aircraft in the past and they were only to happy to supply me with some photos of aircraft in the shop at various stages of construction. I,m sure that if you sent them photos of what you have done so far they would most likely be very helpful. This is what I have in mine.

Thank you very much for your reply. I will do as you advise me.The chassis, which is on your pictures very nicely made. It's your job or someone already produces?

My Feedback: (1)
Question, though: the first of the three "Manual" pdfs (which are obviously a newer version of the manual than the short one included in both of the two kits I have here) has the cover page, and then pages numbered from 7 to 15. Is that correct?

Thanks, Dan! -- a great collection of goodies, and I've snarfed all of them.

i have the archive drawings for every Waco airframe ever built. If you like you can drop by and look at what you like. I'm not really wanting to get into copying and shipping them. If Dan is, I'll let him have them.

Build I'd on hold for a bit, work is sending me to the UK for three months. I look forward to getting back into it in the fall. I woi,d recommend for the 1/5 getting your parts from great planes. Fiberglass specialties product is rough for the price, you can bet the pants and cowl for the same price roughly as the cowl alone. Only caveat I would have is whether or not the GP is scale enough.
and...I still can't post a picture either.

Fibertech and more has the cowl that Damifino built and sent to Stan for a plug. Several of us ordered the new cowl and it's beautiful. Blisters are correct as well. No voids either. You can contact them online. The cowl is $57.00. The correct name is Fibertech N More. Email is rick@fibertechnmore

The one thing that I needed to finish after installing the functional oleo struts was the little slider that fits in-between the main fairing and the transitional fairing at the wheel spats. There is 30 mm of travel on the strut and the slider will slide in and out of the small transitional fairing. This is just a mock up with ply to test it out, will make it with fibre on the finished part.

froghair the spars stop just before the last two ribs look close at the picture and you will see they are supported by the LE and TE with 1/8" dowels.
