A Plan for a Barracuda
Welcome to the world of SPAD, i love it when we get some one from a new location, the 'cuda looks like a good SPAD project, for a low wing basicaly there are 2 ways.
1 build the wing and fuzz as normal, then make a template the from the wing and cut away the fuzz to the right shape, then reinforce the fuzz around the wing "hole".
2 make as per normal, then cut the top wing panel away the same size as the fuzz, then cut the fuzz to suit the wing spar, reinforce around the spar cut out and add a coro/skewer doubler to the underside of the wing.
have a look at www.spadtothebone.com under SPAD originals, there are a few low wingers there like the corostang.
good luck, and if the "cuda flies good you owe us plans for te web site

A Plan for a Barracuda
thnx alot pal that was really incouraging,
i've seen all the planes in the SPAD plans they r awsome and i think i'll make this cuda soon but not before i finish my project on a modified BUHOR that i'm sure will surprise all flyers here
i mean they all here in this part of the world fly ready planes
what u think they'll response to a well built plane by me ?
wish me good luck and thnx again.
