RE: Hal DeBolt's / Midwest Pattern Master
There is progress on the deBolt Viscount! The servos are installed temporarily, the steering, throttle, and brake cables are in. The rudder and elevator pushrod guide tubing is in and the motor mounts are glued in place. Next will be the gluing on of the bottom sheeting on the fuse behind the wing. Still have to trim the wing and stab saddle to set the correct incidence and install blocks around the motor mounts and shape the nose and then finish up a few putsy items on the wing. It is really becoming an airplane fast now and will be ready for covering soon. This airplane builds quickly and it has been a lot of fun so far. I am looking forward to putting on the original color scheme to bring the memory back of how it looked at flying fields over 50 years ago.
