Hi Dave,
Yes I got your PM. Thank you very much. The 2" anhedral sure looks funny to the 4-1/4" for the Tiporares.
The wood called out on the plans (9/16 stock), I couldn't get it from Balsa USA. So, I went w/ 1/2" stock. I'll just trim the cores to adjust the difference.
I'm cutting out the graphics today for the Deception to get that part out of the way until Spring. I'll post pics in my other post. I hope to start next week as I love the start of a new project.
Now I need to come up w/ a color scheme for this one. I was thinking of a modified Thunderbirds paint scheme. I thought of a three tone wrap around paint scheme from the F-4 Phantoms to pay homage to the anhedral stab. I even thought of a Gitmo Bay scheme. It would be different, but a b**** to see in the tree line
