Rick, I never saw the 60 size “Hip Pocket”, but knowing how well his 40 Side Pocket flew was the reason for looking into a set of plans of his 60 size bird.
Seeing some pic’s of the plane or plans/drawings would be the first step, not ever seeing the plane firsthand deters me from just scaling up the design.
Like you said,
“there's far too much speculaton and change to the original design. It just might make a good flyer a dog. While I like the idea of a larger Side Pocket, at this stage of the game with so many designs out there to build, I'd stick to something that's proven. If I had more frre time, I'd think about what you're saying. TO me, the Side Pocket looks somewhat like a Compensator, so if I wanted a larger Side Pocket, I'd probably build a Compensator and paint it to look like a Side Pocket.”

Paul,
Nice Quatro! Didn't you get that recently on RCG?

Yes recently from a friend on RCG, When we met he brought another plane with him for my consideration a NIB 60 size MK Blue Angel that I just couldn’t turn down for 250.
