Default Skip Mast's C-130

Hi,

I believe that Skip's C-130 plan is available from MAN magazine.

With regards to the Dan Palmer's C-130, I have seen the recent enlarged version of his C-130 plan. Not quite happy with the design of the cockpit area and the weights he was quoting in his plan were, in my opinion, a bit under-weight otherwise it was a nice plan.

I have not seen the JHH C-130 fly except for a write-up of this kit on RCM (if not mistaken) and that plane really looks impressive.
I believe that JHH plan calls for 4x90 size engines whilst the Dan Palmer one (which I believe the enlarged version is of the same approximate size of the JHH) requires 4 x 0.40 sized engine (with tuned pipe each). In my opinion there is too much discrepancy in the overall weights.
