Issue: RCM 7-87,

Yours is a Whitehead design and he is a great designer; I have two other plans of his. you should have no problems. Mine, I wanted 1/6 as I am trying to make all my WW1 planes the same scale, and these are scale in size and shape but are sparse with details so you must have some documentation. They should both be great flyers as all D7s. I am about to start mine soon.
