Default RE:

I just scored a copy of the Santich Knight Twister plans from Air Age, with their Fourth of July half-off sale, and now I have a scan of the construction article, from poster "BPS" (thanks, Jerry!). Now to snag a cowl and wheel pants from Fiberglass Specialties. Hoping to start on this project when the rains return in the fall.

I'm thinking of a DLE55 as a possibility, but this may be too much engine for the tapered nose of the Knight Twister. Would a DLE30 be enough go for this airframe? How about an Evo 40GT? Savvy opinions solicited.
