Default RE: Don Smith Cessna T-50

I have some of the Cessna manuals, but not a complete set. Its been about 4 years since I have touched the ol' girl. It is fully covered, fillets are made, and the pinked tape is applied. I need to redo the cloth in the interior as I was never happy with it. I am going for scale, but not museum since I got the airframe half built and the Don Smith drawings have some errors on them that was too late to change for me. Mine was going to be modeled after the Wright Stuff Squadron's UC-78, but they sold the plane. They had hundreds of pictures on their website of the restoration.
I spent 3 months in Cambridge MD[:'(], and never knew there was a Bobcat so close.
