Default RE: Scale Line Models Great Lakes Trainer Build

Dave,

I'm making mine with the crank at the bottom. I posted a 3-view at the first post. I don't know if you can make it out, but it shows the crank at the bottom is a 2T-1A and the crank at the top as a 2T-1E. So I'm going with the "A" like yours.

Here's a pic from the plans showing that they do use a spoke to hold down the cowl, and they do the same with the cockpit hatch. Plus you can see how much balsa it took to carve the cowl. Thank goodness for fiberglass.

Thanks for the offer on the decals, I may take you up on it, but it's something I've been wanting to experiment with, and I may have a few different ones to make. If I fail at it, I'll let you know.

Ron
