RE: House of Balsa 2x4

Does anyone have plans? I have a started kit, but need the wing and rudder plans. Rib spacing and rudder shape will get me going. An out of scale scanned image will help too.

Thanks,

RE: Beech Stagger Wing - 90 Size, collaborators?

What is everyone using for retracts? There does not seem to be much space in the wing to bury them in a 1/7 scale version. I appreciate your feedback.
