Default RE: H9 Corsair flaps

Charles,

the messing with the flaps &getting the flap leaging edge compound curves just right frustrated me the most. Imeaseured everything &measured again 3 or 4 times, built up the front edges separately, then sanded &then glued and still Ihad "rework".

Ithink Iwill make the flap LE out of a solid piece this time, sand &cut &sand until Iget it to fit under the wing TE perfectly &then cut the flaps apart. Then Ican cut the flaps down as necessary to put the ply endcaps on. Ithink documenting the second build and posting on RCcanada will be of more use to those crazy enough to follow along..

Thanx.
