PPS- I didn't run into the diminishing wing tip problem. Not sure why, but it just didn't rear it's ugly head.
That's great to hear...it wasn't a huge problem, but the rear of my tips in the curve are not EXACTLY the same as the plan, still I'm happy with them overall.
The tip shape, (both wing and stab), is unusual for the time period, and is one of the features that give the Simla it's distinctive and unique look.
BTW...Your plane should be starting to look something like this. Yours should have LESS of a Taurus-like appearance than the prototype. After these pictures were taken, I sanded the heck out of the top and bottom nose area of the fuselage, and it helped to a certain extent, but yours should have a more slender nose section, and a slightly taller vertical fin.
I basically wanted the slope of the nose to naturally follow that of the top of the spinner.
Looking for pictures.[8D]
